Default Compare 11s with 55s

Many of you have traveled through the levels learning as you go from 11s on upward. My goal is to get to the 55s in a year. I think that is reasonable. When you think of the level of play and strategy, what is the difference between these two areas of the spectrum.

I will do this too. I started playing the 11's about 2 weeks ago. My nick name is Grange_Master4. GL to ya SaqqyTTs.

My goal will be to reach the 55's in...one month starting with $88.00. So by February I should be playing the 55's with at least a 2k bankroll.

A $5,500 BR would be more appropriate. I started at the $6s in October with $200, I'm on the $33s with $4k+ right now. I spend about 90mins studying for every hour playing though.

30-40 buyins is more than sufficient for a bankroll if you know what you are doing and are willing to move down when you have lost a decent amount of it.

I dont think you need 100 buyins to play a level 30-50 is fine IMO as long as you dont mind moving down when you lose some. Personally if I ever get below 30 buyins I just move down levels till I have 40 buyins for the higher level and then try again. The main difference I have seen on the stars 55+5 copared to the 6+.50 is that there is less dumb play through the first few levels. And usually only like 2-3 players are terrible instead of 5-6. I havent played the 55's very long though so I am still getting used to them.

I didnt mean anything by my post, i just wanted to set a goal. I do think it is very possible for me to do this, even if I am not a very good player.

What do you mean? Its obvious that an 8 buy-in bankroll is more than enough for any semi non decent player to sustain profitability at poker.
