Bankroll Building
For you 5/10 and higher NL players playing with a bankroll of at least 25 buy-ins, how did you build your bankroll?

Re: Bankroll Building
If you could post the amount of time it took you to work up from low stakes NL to 5/10 or above, that would also be helpful.

Re: Bankroll Building
End of Oct 04 - Started $25NL w/ $200.
End of Dec 04 - Left $100NL and moved to 2/4 on Prima. I forget how much I had, somewhere around 25 buyins. Mid Jan 05 - after playing the 2/4 for a couple of weeks i try the 5/10. I think I have about $15k. Make about $11k in a day. Lose it. Feel sick. Late Jan/Feb - move back down to 2/4 and dabble in 5/10 initermittently, making a bit but not really going anywhere. March - Party opens $1k. Had easy access to $3k and bunged it in. Lots of donks in the early days and I hit the ground running. Thankfully I haven't really looked back since. |

Re: Bankroll Building
Rough estimates of time...
Played 80% 2-4 w/ dabbling in 20% 5-10 and some 3-6 for about 6 months from July 04 - Dec 04. Started playing 80% 5-10 20% lower in Jan 05. Started w/ 19 buy-ins in January. Made good money then took a big hit right before party 1k opened. Then party 1k opened and made a lot there. For the past 2-3 months, been playing 80% 5-10 and 20% 10-20. Have about 23 buy-ins for 10-20 right now in bankroll. In 04, I played about 15-20 hours / week, in 05, I've played about 5-10 hours / week - this doesn't include 2+2, reading, or analysis time... |

Re: Bankroll Building
I was playing 2/4 with 30k, hit a good rush one day for 3k+ then just skipped 3/6 because I remembered seeing AKEDbet's post on "skiping 3/6". struggled for about a week, breaking even to plus minus 3 buyins then never looked back since [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Re: Bankroll Building
What is it about the 3/6 ? Im thinking of moving up from 2/4. For those who have made the jump, is it good to just skip it ? what is the state of this limit on party, we dont hear a lot from this game.

I like it because it's an easy stepping stone (the money dif between 400 and 600 is very little, imo, whereas 400->1000 is alot to me...) |
