Here's my situation: I'm pretty new to poker and online poker, and I'm eager to learn it. I'm starting on full tilt poker. However, for starters, I'm just trying to build a bankroll from 0. So I won a ticket by placing in the top 100 in the satellite to the ferguson. I've been thinking of a good way to use this $1 tournament ticket. As research I guess, I observed the Daily Dollar tournament, the Ferguson tournament, and several heads up SNGs.
I figured that the heads up would be the best, though I knew that even this would sort of be a gamble, because it seemed like most people just went all in pre-flop very early, so it became sort of a luckfest again. Sure enough, 1st hand we were both all-in pre-flop. He had Q3 not suited, I had K 10 suited. I raised 2 times the big blind, and he went all-in. Because I had observed people going all-in pre-flop with very average hands, I called it. The guy hits a straight with his 3 on the river. So there, my cashier is back to 0.
Now I've won another ticket in the satellite. I figure I might as well ask you guys then. What would you suggest be my next step, with this 1$ tournament ticket in my cashier? I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks in advance.
