Hi all.

Just withdrawn lots of cash from my various accounts as Christmas is on its way.

I`m left with about the following...

Party $40
Stars $100
Ladbrokes $130
Titan $0
Full Tilt $30

I play MTT & SNG`s, Omaha hi lo, Omaha, holdem, HORSE, Stud hilo, Razz - in that order of prefference - I would say about 70% of the time I play a form of Omaha.

So, the quandry, should I push all of the cash into one or two accounts, or leave it as is?

I don`t like freerolls - too much time for too little reward. Also, I have not been playing many MTT`s over recent weeks.

Any thoughts or advice guys?

TYVM

You need to put them all in one account or a bad swing will leave you broke. Get it all on stars and just GGGRRRIIIIINNNDDDDD.

I recommend putting it all on stars. But I'd play the 5nl buying in for the 10 max instead of 10nl proper. I found it easy to kill the everloving crap out that game by getting total fish to stack off light with their deep stacks. But yeah, then its grindy grindy till you can play 25nl. Maybe a brief stop off in 10nl land before the step up to get back into the standard stacks frame of mind with smaller stacks at risk and to get used to higher play depending on if you've been to 25nl+ before.

i don't want to say either of these guys r wrong but i think having it separated like that might make it last longer i would try to start building it up starting from the one with the least money i would try on full tilt a few heads up tourneys and try to make fast money to enter huge tourneys with like the 250k guaranteed 1 that is coming up in like 12 days which has a $5.50 entry if u can build it up i would bank keep on it but if u run into bad luck u can take a break for a couple of days between poker sites but really i would only play what i am good at so look on all sites and see if their r good Omaha hi/lo tourneys u can enter on every site play to your strong suit

I like to keep a little on each of the sites I play or where CC has cash games. The entry numbers are lower which increases my chances of money.

I agree with evilpoochie, play on several sites and try to build each one up. You'll have to use proper BRM on each site since you don't have much on any one of them, but playing on multiple sites can be refreshing. If you're having a bad day/week on one site, switch to another just to clear your mind and refocus.

I agree that freerolls are not the easiest way to build up a BR. Too long for little money, unless you win the whole thing. Doing some HU and DoNs can be a quick way to build up a little.

Thanks for your thoughts guys...

As I said, I`m not keen on ring games, so I have decided to play lots of turbo SNG`s, leave the money on each site and manage each bankroll as an individual bankroll.

So Ladbrokes and stars I`m playing up to $5 and on Party and FT I`m playing $2.

I am throwing in the odd MTT.

I did think about putting it all on one site, but I go with some of the guys when they say a change is as good as a rest!!!

Thanks guys/

I would combine the roll if possible, and play some of the smaller field mtt.
A good mix of cash, sng and mtt is best. Try to play a site where you can get bonus or rake back.

You might even consider staking or buying a piece of some good players, I have done quite well this month buying shares in other players.....
