at the lower buy ins u learn the basic fundamentals better , just watch all the mistakes ;D and do the opposite.
If u get sucked out on u have to keep a clear head and still make the correct decisions , keeping a control of how u feel/emotions is key to poker imho..

also dont play $24 games until you are 100% confident of these situations, go play $5ish levels and learn this stuff

I can see Ross"s point here but at the end of the day play within your bankroll. If you have a roll of $1500 ish then this level is fine.
You dont neccessarily learn by playing at lower level....you just lose less

Have to 100% disagree with that. These games (but a million times more so the turbo versions) are basically just ICM games where everyone will reach the push/fold stage very quickly so you are basically playing 100% mathematical game, playing "poker" as some would like to play has no place here.
Playing at lower levels you will see and be able to take advantage of more mistakes and be more rewarded (over time and volume) for improving your shoving/calling ranges and you defo dont want to be playing better players in these games who can play 100% correctly and unexploitably imo.

good point again, but a lot of poor players play at the $24 level (albeit less) as well. But you are right that people should learn the maths if they want to be profitable. By losing at this level and posting HHs then OP will improve that way also

True enough albeit much more expensive lessons. I just find it baffling when people play up the levels to avoid the gamblers and play "proper" poker as in these games thats where your profits are defo coming from.
call it a draw? :)
