How should I go busto?

[smd173]

if u still have 11 on sunday then I would try the 100k turny cause u can win a lot if u make FT

Yeah, I've played in the 100K. You have a better chance of being struck by lightning than winning that thing.

If the goal is busto, then let loose with it. Let it ride baby, let it ride. Buy into the highest SNG you can with what's left. If you cash at all, roll it up to the next one. Keep playing the highest you can and roll, roll, roll it up or go busto. If you get to $1000 stop and reevaluate. If not, then you've achieved your busto goal as well.

very good point jd but i doubt that would happen

A friend of mine has been pwning the $16-$25 games over the last few weeks, and you know what? A few he's cashed in without even playing in hand. After thinking a while, you should do one of those

Wouldn't matter in this case. Normally I'm a BR mgmt nit, but in this case he's giving up and throwing away $22 (well, less now). So why not just let it ride like with the horses. Put it out there and take any winning and keep playing as high as you can. It'll fail soon enough and he'll go busto anyway, so why not try for going out in blaze of glory.

lol i guess if he wants to go bust...i have never seen anyone try to go bust. i know everyone wants to win and if it was me i would do what i said in my earlier post. do a 5.50 9 man 3.25 45 man or 1.10 45 man and probably 5.25 heads up since im a good hu player and i would probably build up my br just by doing hu. i have builded 5 to 50$ on full tilt just by playing heads up nothing but hu. started with 2.15 got my 5$ to 10 played 6.50 won it and then kept playing 6.50 till i got to 50

The goal is not to go busto, if I can run it back up, I'd prefer to do that. I'm just not wanting to do proper BR with under $20. The title of the thread is kind of a tongue in cheek type thing. Knowing that because I'm playing outside of my roll, I'm most likely to go bust.

I admire that some people are able to easily take $5 and run it up to $50, but that doesn't happen to me. And I'm not a terrible player, I'm ITM on SNGs 40% of the time, I'm in the top 4, 57% of the time. The sample size is not large though, only 123.

I played 2 more, $5.50s, I finished 7th in a Stud H/L when someone rivered trip 2s on me. And I finished 3rd in Omaha H/L and made $3.50, so I'm presently at $14.50.

I still say that if you're going to through BR mgmt to the curb right now, then do it right, go for broke, and let it ride.

Yeah, well it would have been a coin flip preflop and it was a coin flip when the money got in. I'd much rather go out on a flip than on a sick runner runner beat.
