I was thinking 4 tbls 25nl every time a doulbe one bail, and start again with $25 over and over thoughts?

also solid play with no bluffs

No.

NEVER 'bail' on a winning table, setting a 'stop-win' limit is a terrible idea.

I think with this plan I make steps 4 steps=$100
that way I would not have to risk a big stack which could set be back to square one. and with low buy-in the risk would be less. I dont want to get half way up the staircase and be knocked down to the landing on one hand.

so I guess this could be called the staircase plan...

Though I understand the temptation, ratholing here is actually the worst way to go about this. Should you double up at $25 NL table, you want to use your larger stack to your advantage, forcing your opponents to lay down when otherwise they might call.

How to best make $ really depends on your individual strengths as a player. For me, it would be a couple hours at a 3/6 table. Individual results may vary.

Print and save pshabi's post, as it is very important. Have stop limits if tilting is an issue, but you can't/won't make $100 a day everyday. So some days you'll need to make $500 to make up for those other days when the cards aren't falling.

thanks 2 tone good input

All and any advice welcome

Far better would be to:

1) Learn to recognize when you're starting to play suboptimally,

2) Have the resolve to stop when you are doing so, then come back when you're ready.


God knows I could do better at these.
