Message: [QUOTE="Cheetah, post: 667470, member: 28209"] That is not a good idea, challenge or not. You can ignore BR management in the following circumstances: [LIST] [*]You have so little that even the lowest stakes are big for your BR. [*]You have independent income or assets and you are willing to deposit if you lose. Philty said he is doing that. Another way to view this is that you consider your assets outside your poker accounts as part of your BR. [*]You are a losing player in which case BR management should be replaced with budgeting.[/LIST]When you ignore BR management, in most cases it will take longer to build up a bankroll and in the long run it can lead to total ruin. Of course, ignoring BR management and playing too high CAN lead to a rapid rise of your bankroll IF you get lucky. Fat Stu did that when he played 20/40c with $4 BR and got lucky. However, repeatedly challenging "faith" will prove unsuccessful.:banghead: [/QUOTE]
