I used a 20/17 style till I was at 100nl and then moved to live poker. It worked very well from 5nl

I've been following a 50 bi strategy but after reading other people's strategies maybe I'm being too nitty. I'm skeered of losing all my dough tho.

I play any stakes as long as I wouldn't be crushed to lose what I have on the table.

I've been using something like 40/35 (would like to have 50bi) at HU and at least 25/20 for 6max... for HUSNGs I've always been overrolled (since I haven't played higher than $23 level).

It is very rare to ever hear of someone being down more than 10 buyins unless they are really getting outplayed.

Background info: I have money behind what is in my poker account though it would be a shame if I had to tap into that. Not a big deal at all, though, financially.

What I did was I was rolled for 20NL in my account. I then played 20NL for like a day and jumped to 50NL with like 11.x buyins. Now I am up to like 16 buyins but I have been running probably above average.

Here is my case against you bankroll nits..
I gave up more profit per hour and took a risk to jump up to 50NL. However, everyone gets paid in 2 coins- dollars and experience. So far, I am happy with my choice to be a little more liberal with bankroll management & get the experience.

Another example is Galfond who, during his history, was playing 60,000 NL with a 400,000 bankroll. Of course, everyone's situation is different but there are plenty of examples of aggressive bankroll management that pay off.
