To answer your first question: practice practice practice. Watch other players too. After awhile you'll spot the players that are using basic strategy, and the more you see it the faster you will learn it. As far as bankroll goes thats pretty much up to you. I usually sit down with $100 at a 5 dollar table. If you are counting cards I suggest you sit down with at least 100 times the minimum bet to account for big swings you are inevitably going to have. Most of all just have fun. Unless this is going to be your job its all about having fun.
