My Dilemma - Bankroll Related.
I always have a handle on myself in the "poker world" when it comes to discipline, bankroll, etc. I very rarely tilt. And I try, on a daily basis, to improve my play. I have no intentions of going professional, but I do have aspirations of playing mid / high limits and higher buy-in tournaments on a regular basis.
Here's my dilemma. In roughly 3 weeks I begin working for a law firm. Salary, benefits, percentage agreement, etc. When I'm a working attorney, my poker time should be cut dramatically. If I now play 4-5 hours a day, I might play 1-1.5 hours IF THAT, when I'm working. (I HOPE!) Anyway, when I do get to play, I won't want to play $1/2 short! I'll be making good money, for the first time in my life, so my bankroll gets an auto-boost. Right now, I'm at ~$550 from a $65 deposit. Here are my questions for YOU to answer! (1) If you were me, would you take what I have now and play a little higher? Maybe bump it up to $2/4 instead of $1/2? If you bust out, you can reload when you start working. (2) Do you think it's necessarily bad to just START OFF at a limit? In other words... If, in 2 months, I deposit $2000 online and start playing $3/6 short. How much of a disadvantage am I at that I didn't build the roll from $1/2? I kinda have an idea in my head about how I want to proceed with things, but I thought this could entail some good discussion.
