Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
 

There is no disadvantage to playing a short stack. Buy in for 10-15. Play super tight. Do NOT play any suited connectors. Limp a small pocket pair if you can, but not from early position where there is too great of a chance to get raised behind you. In EP, try to limp/re-raise all-in premium hands since people will call such a 'suspicious' move with dominated hands, especially since it is 'only a few more dollars' and you are a 'short stacked idiot'. Good luck.

Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
 

Not at all. I say the same to my good friends who are looking to learn poker. Seeding even an adequate bankroll from private funds takes a willingness to wave good-bye to the cash. Seeding and under-funded one is just more so.

SNGs and NLHE are two different games. Play whichever appeals to you the most.

My intial deposit was 100 as well, I got lucky and didn't run into a bad streak. Now I play NL100/200.

Funny. My intial deposit was 50. So was my second. And my third. I think my fourth was 100. But my fifth was definitely 'only 50 more'. Etc. Glad I didn't have 100 roll.

Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
 

I don't even know if such a strategy would be effective with a average pre flop raise % of like 3, most pots are limped in from all posistions just making my big pair into a huge multiway pot...

Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
 

So raise it up then. Perhaps I'm misremembering the games as being more aggro than they are. They are certainly too loose, though, and will call with implied odds hand which don't have implied odds against your short stack.
