What to do..
Hi guys..kind at my wits end to a degree. I’m mainly a MTT/SnG tournament payer. I deposited over a month ago ($10) and made it my mission to implant good bankroll managament. I was going to try from 0$ and try see if i could turn it into something but i belive with the amount of entrants and all-ins all the time, it’s really difficult to achieve it. So i just went with depositing my “final” deposit. It’s not been to bad because for over a month i’v managed to still keep my 10$. Its just been up and down, with the highest amount so far at around 35$ and lowest going to around 7$. I’m quite confident that i can keep my orginal deposit and not lose it by keeping the tight bankroll managment and playing 0.25/0.50 buy-in sitNgo’s with the occasional mix of 1$ buy in’s but obviously have to be careful so i dont drain such a small bankroll.
The problem is (i dont know if people will see it as a problem) it seems to be quite draining and after a month not showing very much. The only thing i’m showing is that i’v not lost my money. Now, i sat there for 3 hours the other night in a 0.25 tournament, took much longer than normal and i cashed, and gained around 4cents...I sat there and wondered was it worth it. I know it’s worth it in the sense of learning poker and not jumping in the deep end but i am a gambler and gamble on horses and don’t know if i should try jump up a level or two by depositing maybe 100/200$ and trying slightly more buy-ins. At least then if i cash like i have been doing which is around 24% of the time and out of those 50% have been final tables then i would feel the time i’v put in has been “worth” it..
I'm quite confident even if i continue playing at these stakes that i will cash in a larger tournament it's just waiting for that to happen. I know this sounds arrogant and over confident but i believe i perform quite good at these stakes..
Your views would be great on this and maybe can point in the right direction, maybe I'm just being inpatient although at a table i am very patient and don't get bored then start playing rubbish hands.
Would be great to see your views on this..
