| Bankroll Strategy for MTT What about playing a tight cash game strategy with the purpose of using the winnings as entry fees for MTT's? It seems to me that playing a lot of MTT's is costly and without a top five finish, you will eventually go broke. The goal would be to score a big win in an MTT. |

| I used my winnings from HU sng's to enter the 1/4th million at PS and a SCOOP event, so yeah you can use your cash game/sng profit to play MTT's. To play MTT's only you'd need a good sized BR I'd say 50-100 BI's depending on how comfortable you are and how tough the field is. But mostly the reason people don't play MTT's only is because you need a lot of time to complete one and swings will be heavy. Personally I think of my grind at the HU sng's as practice, MTT's to me are a way to put your practice into play. |

| I have used exactly that method to build up substantial bankrolls at several sites. I start out with an initial deposit of (at most) $100. I play in a small-stakes cash game until I am up $10, then use that to enter a $10 MTT. I repeat the process until I hit a final table, and that will then boost my BR up into the $500+ bracket - easily enough to carry on playing $10 MTTs until I win again and can move up in stakes. |
