My Bankroll is at $5 Dollars What Now???

pokermatch · Apr 6, 2009

You only got 5 dollars, so it wouldnt be wize to just to go a table and
hope to double up. What would be smart is to play some sit and goes.
These only require about a dollar, the smallest ones, and they have
various positions that pay off. This way you will be able to play a lot more
and get the chance to build your roll.

Sit&gos are the best way, i even did it with less then that at PS, i think it was 2 bucks

you may be confusing "win rate 88%" and ROI (return on investment of 88%).The numbers dont add up to 88% win rate

1. Deposit $50 more and go to $55 sit-n-go.
2. Finish game at last place.
3. Go sleep

You have 2 options,

1. Try and win some more in freerolls so you have more potential to earn in buyins.

2. Play the lowest level SNG's and pray you cash in at least one of your first 4.

I am taking it that you are on Full Tilt Poker.

If you are, there are $1 + $0.25 SNG's so you could play 4 of them.

If you don't cash, you are back to square 1 so play really tight.

Pokerstars has $1 double or nothing SNG's I'd play those they pay half the field just play tight and keep building up good luck !

PattyR · Apr 6, 2009

1.) Definately play the low limit sngs

2.) play every single freeroll available, ya never know how deep ya can go

3.) do not take your bank roll to a low limit table, you will lose it

best of luck to ya

Play freerolls to earn some cash.

vollski69 · Apr 7, 2009

If it is on full tilt try the low no limit holden they are cheap but you should play tight but aggresive becuase they will take advantage of passive players even at that level.

Play the double or nothing sng on poker stars I did with 5 buck and got up to 100 in a bout a month just have patience

Leo 50 · Apr 8, 2009

If you don't want to reload, then play some freerolls, micro SnG's or Micro cash games.

BE PATIENT!! Play Tight.

Only if you wish to lose your BR. Use BRM and you will do good..

Yeah i got a bit messed up on that

, and i was trying to remember

Thanks for the fix

j_unatrix · Apr 8, 2009

BEST decision if its on stars or tilt

Buy in to the 1./2. nl tables for 1 dollar each.Play as many tables at a time as possible at your comfort zone with a tight/aggresive approach and you should have a more then decent chance of growing this 5$ bankroll of yours in time i promise.
Anyone feel free 2 add or if you want anymore tips or info i have a lot.GL!

sharpone · Apr 9, 2009

My advice is to take your time slow down. Dont be in a big hurry to spend that 5 dollars. Make a plan take a few days to figure out the best way to get your money in that brings the highest returns. Maybe the answer is sit and go's or a few 1 dollar tournies that if you are lucky you could yeild high returns. But biggest thing is dont rush into anything have to have a plan. so slow down and keep your fingers crossed.:joyman:

ihavea4 · Apr 17, 2009

i would actually learn another game, like stud or something. for one thing, the limit games are a lot easier to beat i think, and at the low levels, no one knows how to play them. i started playing more stud then HE and i won a lot more than i thought i would. plus, since it's limit, you can't lose that much. just remember, don't chase too much, and bet with your strong hands.

Chili2424 · Apr 17, 2009

I've gotten $2.52 up to $150. It can be done

skoldpadda · Apr 22, 2009

I've gotten $8 up to... a large mulitple over 500x that and counting.

Imo, if you can learn how to play stud hi-low, there is no easier money available for the taking. Razz is really easy at those levels, too.

The key is discipline and playing tight.

Keep your (miniature) bankrole in mind.
Don't play ANY games that are above your ability unless you want to reload.
