The question is in the title, detailed is better, but you could also only say micro-,low-, mid- or highstakes, for live cash lowstakes is 200NL-500NL and or midstakes and online is midstakes 200NL-500NL, Lowstakes is 50NL-100NL

At this moment (and for the most part of history) only on micro stakes as I'm doing bankroll from scratch challenge. I used to dip into low stakes back in the days, but never for long as I only play casually. :)

I play all freerolls available to me and micro buy-in tournaments as well. 90% of the tournaments I play have a buy-in of about $1.

I only play micro stakes. Freerolls and up to 2 € tournaments. Mostly 0.50 to 1. Cash I play only Limit Holdem and Stud8. I am bad at NLH cash and loose there, because of that I normaly don't play it.

I start playing freerolls, then I play tournaments up to $ 5.5 or satellites up to $2. If I manage to collect a bankroll, I fix the profit and always return to freerolls.

I mostly play NL10. A little more time and I will move up to NL25. Sometimes I can play a few tournaments for $2-5.5

Not sure about the ranges assigned but here is what I play:
- Online - Freerolls up to about $5 (CDN) for tournaments
- Live Home Games - Cash games only - $40 buy-in, with unlimited rebuys - Fixed Limit Holdem
- Live Casino Games - Cash games only - preferrably Fixed Limit, but these are disappearing. No Limit - maximum of $200 buy-in.

Nano and micro can o stakes . With so many bad beats and bots , I struggle to level up stakes . I am satisfied with most decisions that I make nowadays , can't say the same for RNG

I play on bets called freeroll and I don’t want to invest my money anymore, if I lose a lot of my money, then I won’t win it back.

When I was playing seriously I stuck with a Bankroll strategy that allowed me to buy-in for nothing bigger than 1% of my Bankroll. As my Account is my Bankroll I can now buy-in for as much as $6 a game, I rarely do except for the occasional MTT Game but prefer to play 50 Cent and $1. Dollar games, as all I am really interested in is Playing Poker for fun, The money just does not matter to me, Sure it is nice to win, but not my ambition to be rich or a Professional Player.
For me I just like to be part of the game, I have never been much of a spectator watching other people play Football or Tennis just bores me to tears,
I have to be involved to enjoy it, Winning or Losing is immaterial, It is how I play that concerns me the most and if I spend 2 or 3 hours playing a Tournament, going out as the bubble boy then sure it is upsetting, but not the end of the World. I will just go register for another game.
Guy Laliberte is a millionaire already and winning a Poker Tournament would be just pocket change for him, He plays because he enjoys playing Poker, not to become rich, He's already a millionaire.

When the Fun Stops, STOP!

Generally speaking, I would stick to nano or micro stakes, as that is all my bankroll can usually handle. The main problem is bankroll management, as you want to have at least 50BB available (but preferably 100+), when entering a cash table and also need to play conservatively.
