30$ BR to catch the 2.50 buy in 129$ prize

#1 25th May 2011, 12:40 AM

Hello cards chat, my first post. Made a little deposit of 30$ to win the 130$ price of the micro 2.50$ buy in MTT in stars. Asking if this could work, and if the variance does not affect me and I win the big prize, what should be next. Keep grinding in the 2.50 or try cash or SnGs. I registered my account with CC600 but I dont know for what it is. Also, is MTT a good way of making profit? or should I start looking for the ring games.

MTT's has high variance.
30$ is enough for 12 2.50$ MTT's, and chances are it will take longer than that to win.
It might work, but you might get unlucky and go broke and have to re-deposit.
If you win and move up and start playing more seriously for more money I would recommend at least 100 buy-ins for MTT's.

Even if you win that first place, your still not really rolled for the games and can easily go broke

With a $30 deposit, I think your best bet is the 90-man $1.10 MTT. They are super soft...

You also may want to try some .01/.02 cash games and just Nit it up until you can get up to the required $100 to be rolled for them.

I would play the small cash games to keep my bankroll going, and play the mtt's if i win a few dollars. It can take a long time to cash in mtt's.

You have 12 buy-ins and you will probably get into the money once or twice after 12 games.Hopefully, you will finish something like 7th or better to replenish your bankroll and play some more tourneys until you reach top3

You may not win it even after playing 50 tournaments, however a good player should hit 2nd or 3rd place at least once after 30 tourneys.
