So I am going to deposit $300 tonight and I thought I might use $200 for a satellite run. Here was the break down...

poker stars Sunday Million $27 + $2 SNG x 2
EPT Barcelona €30 + €2.70 x 2
EPT Vienna €30 + €2.70 x 1

So basically that gives me 5 SNG's for about $200 with the exchange rate. Seems kind of steep to me. I'm starting to second guess this because even the best players can go 5 for 5.

So now I am thinking about maybe allocating maybe $100 for Omaha Hi, $100 for Omaha Hi/Lo and $100 for tourneys or smaller SNG's. Thoughts?

Of course you can get lucky, but you are underrolled for these tourneys.
You would be playing scared money I think, and that is never a good thing.

Yea those are outside of our bankroll range. Rather than toss bits and pieces at several things choose one thing to focus on. And play th elow buy-ins.
