Goal #2 - Steadily build a bank roll and move up.

My second goal is to build my bankroll and move up.

This means three things:

• "There is no hurry!",
• Bankroll management,
  
• I want to play higher limits.
  

There is no hurry!
I start in the micro limits. From that point on, I want to build my bankroll steadily. I don't need to play in the low or middle limits just yet. Not today, not tomorrow. Maybe in a month or a year. If it takes longer, that's ok too. (It's a game, remember?)
Yes. I do have the money. I could deposit enough money to play FL 1/2, 3/6, 5/10 or even higher limits right away. It wouldn't even hurt me, if I lost that money. But I don't want that.


Bankroll management
My plan is to play according to a strict bankroll management. The rules are easy:

• my bankroll should be ~300BB (e.g. $30 for FL .05/.1),
  
• BB/100h > 1 for at least 10k hands before even considering to move up
• win 360BB before moving up ($66 for FL .1/.2)
  
• if I loose 60BB after moving up, I move a limit down ($54 -> back to FL .05/.1)

I want to play higher limits
No. I don't want to grind a level forever. I'm a competitive guy. I'm up for the challenge. If I'm good enough on a certain level (according to my BR management) I'm going to move up. Even if it means playing Yo-yo :D
