Hi joshchapman2.
The first thing i would do is to find a site i like and play the free money games to start with
If even for half an hour or so as this way you will get the feel of the site and how to use features such as chat tourney progress etc.you cannot really go wrong with any of the major sites but i would recommend Full Tilt to start with.
DO NOT jump straight in and start playing ring cash games.This is the easiest way to lose your bankroll.
Play small stake Sit n gos first single table s.If you can master the sit n go tables then play some ring games.
For instance if you deposit $20 this would give you enough to play 16 games and if you win 1 in 4 you will make profit.
Again it all depends on the reason that you play poker.
Is it for fun or profit or both.What duration will you play for 5/6 hours a night or once a week.
The most important thing for me is that i enjoy it when i play poker.
Find a site and game format that you enjoy playing and also find a good forum and stick with them.
You can get a lot of invaluable help from a good forum.
