Re: Bankroll
$1000 is a good start. But before commiting that to poker, go there with $100. No less No more. Just so you can take in the experience and if you lose it and end up hating the casinos, then you lose just that. If you go to the Hustler and they have a 2-4 table going(usually only on friday and saturday night), they have a no flop no drop policy. Also they have a one blind system and a new player in the game doesn't have to post (forced bet on first hand). The only problem with 2-4 is that it is hard to over come the rake, unless you are killing the table.
Try the 3-6 (which is likely the lowest limit at the time), it is usually good and it is not pre-flop raise crazy like the Commerce or Hawaiian Gardens, so you can usually see the flop for one bet.
In the end, if you think you can take it, then commit more to your bankroll. Good Luck, and try to play only premium hands when you are first starting out.
