Starting a bankroll.

Hello
I have been playing for 3 years now and have deposited some money on Stars. I break even 50.00$ buy-in, received 50.00$ check. Kind of funny right.

Now I'll be trying a new method to better myself in bankroll management.
So I will be playing Play Money SitNGo, starting in the 300+20 9ppl level .

When i reach 12500 chip count I will bump up a Level.
2......25000= 320.20 18ppl
3......34000= " " " 27ppl
4......70000= " " " 45ppl

Currently I have 15000 chips! "!!!only 55000 to go!!!"

If I'm able to do so I should be ready to play some real SitNGo's.


Or is this just a waste of time, because play money players play in sutch a crazy manner, that my goal is unreachable because of very bad play that they bring to the table?



Tell me what you think.

It is an interesting experiment. I played a lot of play money SNGs before I started playing cash SNGs. I was killing the play money. When I moved to cash I lost the first 6 or 7 badly. The tactics that worked in the play money just didn't produce results for me in cash. I had to develop a new game plan to see any success.

But that was me, hopefully it works out better for you. Best of luck.

practice is always a good thing to get the feel of how to play a particular kind of game or tourney so as long as your learning it is not a waste of time . just remember to play ur game and dont worry about how other players approach the game yes its play money but object is still to win!!!

id say its a waste of time though man.

i personally just did this on FT and got up to 750K chips within a week...it seems like good practice when in reality its just ppl not caring and wanting to pay you off jus to see what you have.

jus start playin for real cash now imo...grind out some micro limits

In my experience the 10,000 play money sit and goes don't play much worse than the $1 real money ones on Stars. It's not exactly comparable because there will be some better players in the real money ones, players who just don't have the bankroll to play higher, but also some worse ones that deposited and don't know as much as the players at the 10,000 play money players do, so the field tends to be a wider range.

To collect enough play money to be able to play the higher buyin sit and goes the players have to have played successfully for a bit so the general play is more homogeneous than the real money ones, where people can play just by depositing whatever they feel like depositing.

Thank you very much.
Ill stick to my goal and be realy ready to play after this is done.
