| How long should I stay? I am a former sng/mtt NL poker player who has discovered the sexiness and profitability of cash games online. I've only been playing at the micro stakes (NL 5 mostly with some NL 10 in between) for the bast couple days and i have turned a $65 profit. I am sure some of this is due to variance and that i am experiencing a hero upswing but i mostly practice good br by maining on nl 5 tables (i table 2-3 tables at the same time). I am a TAG player who choses FR tables with solid average pots and people to the flop. I blind steal often and occassionaly defend my bb. I like to use position to hurt weak pre-flop betters as well as on the streets. I am good at representing hands and i catch a lot of bluffs. I still, of course have much to learn with a goal of growing my br and hitting the NL25 and from there who knows! My question is when should you leave a table when you're experiencing a lot of profit. I've had a few 2-4 hr sessions in rooms where my $5 buy-in stack has grown to $15-$20+. At what point should i leave so people don't get a good read on me? Or should i stay and just combat the aforementioned by switching gears? |

| re: How long should I stay? poker Quote:
I usually stay until I double up. Again this depends on the table. If it has some tilted guys then I will surely stay until they get KO. Your type of game picked is also very important in deciding when to leave. If you play tight stay until x3-x5. If you play aggressive then x2 is enough. |

| I struggle to know when to leave a table..I should quit when I hit a decent profit but I never seem to be able to as I enjoy it to much..which usually leads me to losing some and sometimes gaining a little more. I guess it's each to their own but I just tend to stay till I've had enough or if I'v played for several hours. I don't usually go if I double/triple up I stay if anything. |

| Chris Ferguson went from zero to $10,000 in a year playing on Tilt. This is the BR management he used for cash games. Never risk more than 5% of your BR on any table. If, at any point, you reach 10% of your total BR on a table you must leave when the blinds reach you. I think you can read an article about it at fulltilt.com |
