Default Re: Winning big - The worst scenario for new players?

I have to agree with you. I'm an ultra conservative individual by nature. I started with $12 of THEIR money, and never contributed a dime of "my own". I started at the .02/.04 tables and it took me 4 months just to get to $40 playing .02/.04, then .05/.10

However, even though I do consider myself conservative by nature, I believe that winning big from the get go would have delayed my education immensely. I mean, why study if I'm winning and if I'm clueless (as a beginner) that it takes studying? Eventually, I'm sure I would have buckled down and educated myself, but it would have taken far longer had I had a great run from the start.
