just beginning on pokerstars with 250 bankroll...

what limit should i play with the amount i have in my bankroll?

[Bodhi]

.5/1, and be prepared to drop down if it goes badly.

i've read about bonus whoring but it seems like it is a ton of work to do that...ive borrowed 50 from a friend and ended up cashing 8000 out of party poker and i later received a 100 reload from party poker and i made that into 2000 so i think ill be fine at .5/1. at what bankroll should i move into 2/4 or 1/2?

[Bodhi]

$600 1/2
$1200 2/4
$1800 3/6
etc.

.25/.5 for a couple weeks or 6000 hands until you get the hang of it.

Then move up to .5/1. Don't worry about whoring until you have about $600. This will allow you to move $500 to a whoring site and still leave money to play PS, while you wait for the money to be moved around.

Homer has a post that is sometimes bumped in the internet forums. That is a good if slightly outdated whoring guide.

If u have the experience as stated I`d go onto 2/4 for starters,in case u go on a bad swing. Reckon u can hold your own. I have never thought to much about x times bb if I felt I was above the game or most of the players seated, so with good gameplan and gameselection thats where I`d start. IMO

Starting at 2/4 with only 60BBs would be very stupid, just play 0.5/1 until you have 600$ and then 1/2, no need to hurry. Your risk of ruin with only 60BBs is rather large i would imagine.

Look in the micros forum, it's more relevant to your situation and there's a good bankroll building link by Greg J on the front page at the moment.
