Hello again!

I have been posting in the beginning of the week complaining playing on pokerstars really didnt work out .. i really thank the guys who left a command with some very usefull information, i've been reading books, this forum and alot of on the internet ..
Been building my bankroll, from 8$ i'm up to 40$ now .. go's with up and down's but i'm ok!

now my question is, i have been playing primarily 1.50$ 6 max SnG's, and sometimes 3.50$, wich games are really good to practice tournament play on pokerstars ?

Thx!!

you should keep on laying sng first to get your bankroll to at last 100 bucks after this you can move on to low limit 45 person or 90 person mtts for example for 1 dollar buy inn, there you have blinds going up every ten minutes so its not to fast to learn. i would not touch the turbo or supüer turbos in the beginning, there are to many persons just doing donkey bets or calling all ins with small suited cards and so on , so it is just a gamble sometimes.
Keep on reporting how you are doing please, may you can also show as some critical hands in here

Don't play anything higher than $1.50, don't play $3.50's...this is less than 15 buy-ins.

Anyway, personally if I had a $40 roll I'd be playing the 50c 45/90man turbos, y

I play a lot of the $.10 and $.50 SNGs on Carbon. I built my bankroll off FRs, and now I'm building it off micro SNGs. With your $40 BR, I would never play any game over $1.

Think i'm going to handle the 1$ MTT's since i love them the most .. The 10 cents sng's on pokerstars are ridiculous, luck is to much of a factor.. and since i'm getting better at calculating my odds in a hand i think the mtt's will do fine..
Been learning all factors that help me with the decision like pot odds, EV, equity and fold equity, etc..

i'm reading the theory of poker by Sklansky right now, i must say, i'm looking to improve my game, and so far it has been working ..
also been avoiding 'marginal situations' to decrease the times i would tilt haha .. but if i do i do something else for a while, and that has been helping to ..

And i avoid any turbo games .. they are just, you know, donk attractive i guess :D

Thx for the people who have answered my post!

yeah i definatly wouldnt go any higher with your buy in, but when i played on pokerstars they had some good satalight tournys for fairly cheap i would suggest trying those if you want to try getting in to a good tourny..for ex. i won a 2 dollar sat. got a 10 dollar seat in their 250k GTD i ended up winning that tourny with almost 42000 ppl in it i won $33,900

I think the $1 mtt's and sats are a great way to get experience without killing your bank roll. I know that is what i should have done and will do next time i either deposit or win another freeroll

Been building my stack up a bit more, losing a bit, winning a bit,
Instead of STT's and 1 dollar MTT's i tried a 1.35 knockout with 10700 people in it ..
Right now 11/59 .. first price around 1500 $ .. this would be so awesome ;D
