Play to many different things

I know the bankroll idea already. I dubbled up with my 3rd deposit, but I think this is the problem to make the real money.

And I can't use URL and IMG tags...

I'd say start out playing 2NL and go from there. This is the least-variance approach to playing poker, and probably the most educational since you will get a greater volume of hands in as you progress.

Also, a 50$ deposit would be all you need to be properly rolled for this stake.

There's no shame in starting at 2NL. I did it after years of playing MTTs exclusively - and wish I just did this in the first place. Learn to play teh pokar for real!

Joining IRC would probably be beneficial as well.

I know I could play 2NL, but I have already dubbled up and I win in 5NL more, but I may want to cash out and start again with a low roll.

Master one game while dipping your toe in the others. Like I spend 80% playing NLHE full ring, 10% NLHE 6max and 10% PLO, 2-7 Draw and Razz, which is like my "poker is fun" time instead the "man, this sure is a grind". I still try to play my A game, but it breaks up the monotony once in a while. Plus I think learning other games, albeit slowly, will help improve your NL game.
