Well, I am probably the best person to answer ALL these questions about MICRO limits on this blog. I just turned 19. I have Never deposited any $ onto stars. I started out playing Play Money and then sold that PLAYMoney for 70 cents. That 70 cents meant so much to me, I would sit at .02/.04 limit tables for hours trying to hit $2. I dislike limit but i couldnt sit at a NL table with only 70 cents. Once i had $2 i started playing .01/.02 heads up tables. It took about 5 months and soon i had over $100. I know this was nothing compared to what you guys play but i had no way of deposting so i really didnt want to lose it. Soon i had $300 and cashed out $50. Then i started STUPIDLY playing the $1/$2 tables and i lost all my money but $2. I did just Recently learn my lesson tho.
I was pissed and quit playing poker for about 4 months. I came back and bought into a $1 MTT and finished 6th of 2146 and got back up to $85. I play just the .05/.10 tables and the $5 and $10 Sit N Go's and now have $125 in my account after cashing out another $50. I also play up to the $11 MTT tournys, i know thats not within my bankroll really, but i tend to do pretty good at these, making at least some money about 35% of the time, and right, when u hit a final table, you're usually way up, as long as you didnt lose too often from playing the MTT's before.
Wow, that pretty much turned into the story of my poker life, sorry, but i would actually be Very interested to hear your guys stories of how you got started and what not, so I'll just leave it.
