Low limit Ring Game

I don't play many ring games. I like the tourney setting. Liking MTT a lot more then I did and Sng a lot less. Then I figured if I am good enough for final tables and beat out XXX amount of people lets see what I can do at a ring game. blinds are $.02/$.04. They say the recommended amount is $4 to come in. I say ok. I usually do the minimum and play tight. Bringing in $4 was a better idea. I played exactly 100 hands. I won 13 of them. I put on the mindset of a tourney. If it works there it should work here. by the time I was finished i left with $8 and some change. I was up to $10. I did something stupid that I never do. And now I know why. King Ace suited bunch of new players at the table and im money leader in the room. I raise to $.20. Flop came out with 2 cards of my suit. I check, next guy checks, next guy bets around $.30. I call other guy folds. Next card no help. Check, guy bets about $.60. Now i should have folded after the flop. We all know that. But hey why not make the call. So I did. Being a donkey. River not my suit. Now im left with my Ace King suited and the board paired 6. Maybe I should have made an attempt but i didn't see that guy getting off the pot. Check. Guy raised all in. Of course I folded. He didn't show his cards and that's fine. I told him that it was his money now and to double it up. I still left with a 100% profit. Maybe I'll up my ring games soon. My bank roll is now up over $100 then what I started with.
