[QUOTE="oneearthjc, post: 761637, member: 37399"]
I am a VERY green poker player.  I've been playing on Full Tilt for less than two months and this is my ONLY poker experience (no live games near me.)

I am trying to learn, but become increasingly frustrated when players are continually willing to shove in all there chips on less than a coin flip because it is only a $2 game.

For example:  108 player tournament blinds are at 60/120 and stacks are pretty equal.  I am in the small blind and have have 2200.  The play folds around to the button who limps in.  With AA I raise to 360, the big blind folds and the button calls.  Flop is A J 4 (all different suits) giving me three Aces!  I raise to 840 (pot) and the button goes all in.  I obviously call and he shows K 10 of clubs and hits his Q on the river, basically ending my tournament.

I realize that people take unreasonable risks at all levels, but I am just wondering if at the higher stakes have a better quality of game?  I have a very small bankroll so I don't want to learn at a much higher lever, but am wondering if $5 or $8 levels are any different.

Thanks!
