Small Bankroll what to play?

#1 23rd October 2008, 2:50 AM

Hey guys and gals,

Just looking for some info on what I should be playing. My roll is small $20 on stars. Just wondering if anyone can give me some insight into what would be good to take a shot at playing? Any advice would help thanks.

either shortstack 1/2cent fr or the lowest limit games they offer (not even sure what it is, but probably 10/20 cent?)

if you want to play tourneys or sags, then try the 10cent/360s, until you have about 40-50 and then move into 1dollar ones
be aware of the variance in the big tourneys though, you can lose your 20bucks with even 1dollar buyins - streaks on 20 tourneys without cashing is not unheard of

they do offer 25cent tourneys sometimes as well
also you may want to look at the double or nothing tourneys as they probably will be a better choice for you to grind out a br

I'd suggest the 2max nl or .02/.04 cent to .05/.10 cent limit ring games. I currently have 1.65 on pokerstars (lol), not enough for ring games so am doing to .10 sngs

Are there .10 sngs on Stars? I can't seem to find them. You may also want to try a few of the $1 SitnGos on Stars.

I don't play that site, but you should look for the lowest stakes. Wait till you build up your roll, if you do. Before going to a higher limit.

Whats going on matt!

I suggest for a bankroll of twenty dollars you should start off at the lowest limit tables with a 2 dollar buyin. If you want to play an sng never go any higher than the lowest limit for now. Even though the price pools may seem nice you dont have the bankroll to afford it. Good luck though

yes their there. sit and go, all, sort by buyin, go to the bottom, right above the fpp buyins theres 360 player .10 nlhe, and 240 player .10 plo. theres always a couple dozen of the nlhe running. also no 10% fee or anything, just 10 cents!
