You're welcome! Believe me I know because I've been where you are right now, sort of. I started playing at FullTilt after I cashed in $50 worth of chips from NDN, and I've done that twice now. I also had a win from one of our NDN Poker Tour Buy-In Games for $45. Ever since I started playing, I've only stuck to the $1 + $.25 Sit and Go tournaments, with one foray into a 3 dollar superturbo just to experience it since those are what klinkman plays, only at higher stakes. I have cashed in my last 5 tournaments in a row and am finally seeing a profit in my poker account.

My point is that no matter how much your experience increases (despite what freeringo may tell you) you really should let your bankroll dictate much of what tournaments you play. I hope he doesn't mind me sharing this, but klinkman has been playing poker for a lot longer than I have, and his bankroll is larger, but he used to play in higher stakes tournaments than he does now. Everyone who plays poker goes through a drought, even the best players, and klinkman was one of the unlucky people who went through such a drought. As a result, he's had to lower the amount he invests in each tournament he plays, despite his increased experience at the game.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that bankroll management is important for every poker player to keep in mind, and just because you're playing in lower stakes tournaments (especially if you have to drop down from what you're used to playing) does not necessarily mean you're any worse of a poker player.
