dabetka 0 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I am a fairly new poster on here, though I have been reading FCP for probably 2-3 yrs now (because DN is my fav. pro.) I started playing online poker about 5yrs. ago or so (buying in $25 on prtyp and building it upto 100 cashing out 50 then donking the other 50 away repeatidly.) I started taking it fairly seriously about 9 months ago, bought in 50 on P stars, cuz I heard it was a much better site than PrtyP , and have built up to around 4 digit mark starting with sng's and now am playing cash games (mainly 10/25 cent holdem six person holdem.) I concentrated mainly on sng's until I had an absolutely horrid streak, my roi went from like 20-25 to 10 in a matter of 2 months (just check my sharkscope lol.) I just play when I have time, so am not aspiring to be a pro or anything like that, but I have done decent in a couple of live $50-75 buyins etc. Basically, the reason for my post is, I was wondering how big of a roll I should have to move upto 25c/50c games. I would appreciate any constructive advice, also any helpful stories from people who did same thing. Thanks for the help. Link to post Share on other sites
SlapStick 0 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Im pretty clueless as of my own BR.There are plenty of articles in the general strategy and cash game strategy about bankroll management that answer most of what your asking. Stevestud's Q&A is pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites

This may make me sound like an idiot, but I can't figure out the damn search function on this site, ex: I search bankroll management and a bunch of crap comes up that doesn't seem to have anything to do with it, basically just recent posts etc. I searched for steve7stud like you suggested and went to his profile and couldn't find what I needed. So, could someone help the newbie (me) figure out where to dind this stuff?! Link to post Share on other sites

GeneralGeeWhiz 0 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I would advise on 30. It's a good number in case you go through a downswing, and I tend to find when I only have 20 buyins I play scared money. Link to post Share on other sites
