GaF Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Re: 50$ to who knows im trying to rebuild my roll With the greatest of respect - you'll never build a roll, no matter how good you are, if you sit down at 1 table with 50% of your available roll!! Doubly so if you get emotional about standard daily swings! Here's an article on Basic Bankroll management. http://www.pocketfives.com/articles/basic-bankroll-management-224586/ In summary - if you want to play NL25, and want a high risk of going bust (even if you are a winning player) then you need a starting bankroll of $375. If you want to be well protected from going bust, then to play at NL25, you need a starting bankroll of $1,000. I'm also curious of your strategy. Why 50 hands? If you are better than your opponents and are feeling good, why would you leave after 50 hands? Conversely, if at any stage you realise you are being outplayed, why hang around till 50 hands? Get up and go elsewhere immediately! Also, assuming you are planning on sticking at NL25 and not move up - to win $950 over 7,000 hands is (if my maths is right :unsure) a rate of about 54 BB/100. That's a totally unrealistic expectation and no-one wins at anywhere near that rate (over a proper sized sample). If you beat the game at 3 BB/100, then you're not doing bad! Sorry to offer negativity - but I presume you'd prefer honesty to fantasy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bart(UK) Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Re: 50$ to who knows That's a great post from GaF and far from being negative, I'd say that it's a hugely construtive one. Agree with everything said. Whilst players are obviously entitled to play however they like, the longer term view where you're using a 2 to 5bb edge over many '000s of hands is always the most profitable one. Poker is all about small edges, if you're 2% up on a table after 1,000 hands you're doing well, if you're 50% up after 50 hands you're pushed too much on black or red. We are all here to help each other. You will find a lot of hugely experienced (much more than myself) members who are willing to share experiences, thoughts and strategy etc if you're looking to try again. Good luck & let us know your thoughts and how you get on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedja_srb Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Re: 50$ to who knows 50$ for nl10/25 is soooo small... so you will loose 100%. And playing sessions from 50 hands is also -EV. Put more money or start from nl2/nl4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
