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....
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.

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. - Jim

Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
I could be way off here ( i usually am) but when you say [ QUOTE ] I usually just up the buy in to 10+1, 20+2 and eventually dabble in 50+5. [/ QUOTE ] This implies that used to have a BR and either lost it or withdrew it for non-poker reasons. If indeed you did lose an online BR i definately think a different site with a $10 buy-in would be best. You won't be there for long.. I started just about a month ago after winning $50 in a freeroll and my BR is now up to $800 playing just $10 and $25 buy-in NLHE.. and I suck at this game... If I am wrong and u didn't lose your BR at the tables then I apologize.. Just trying to look out for a fellow 2+2'er

Re: 100 dollar bankroll....
Yea back when I didn't really understand the concept of a bankroll and I deposited 50 only to play 10+1's and 20+2's. I managed to get up to 125 but then something disasterous happened. I let a buddy of mine play on my account and he started out with a 5 dollar tourney here and there, but eventually he got up to over 500 dollars in addition to the 125 that was mine... He then would play in 100+9's mult table just to get to play with Chris Ferguson,(and he was actually at the same table as him once but he managed to continuation bet his AQ untill he pushed all in on the river with nothing) I guess when you really never had it it's not to hard to lose. Anyway one nite he came in my room and started playing and let his pride get on the line and like about 6 20 dollar heads up to this one guy. I eventually went to bed and woke up to a dollar in my account. So to make a long story short it's probably not best to let a friend play on your account, but hey you live and you learn.
