To answer this question further information is necessary.
What kind of poker do you want to play? Cash-Game, Tournaments, Sit and Go etc.
With which inserts do you want to play?

But it is possible to start with 0$. You can play freerolls, for example Cardschat Freerolls or you can play the The League to build a bankroll.

It varies according to the Buy-in you want to play, for example if I want to play 1 $ I have to have at least 100 $ of Bankroll, to have peace of mind.

That depends on many things but simple answer would be that deposit only the amount that you can afford to lose. Always consider that money already lost from the money you use for your living expenses so don't take any risks with that. If you are a beginner who has never played before, I would start slow at the microstakes and wouldn't deposit more than 50$ at first. Bankroll management is also important so whatever you decide to deposit, make sure that you have at least 30 buy-ins for the stakes you are about to play.

It depends on the limit you're playing. I also think most players have their own opinion. I believe you need from 25-40 buy-ins for whatever limit you play

Hi))
Start with a small payment ...
It is necessary to do this unequivocally ... what to deduce then ...
I think 20-30 dollars is enough for you to start ...
But play carefully ... and as mentioned above - rates of about 10% of your total bank ...

There are very questions to answer before... Like if you are playinf for serious or for fun... what kind of game do you will play... But in general, pick up the value of the games you will play and multiply by 50x, and it probably will be a good start bankroll ;)

my recommendation is the following:
deposit $ 100 and play tournaments (if you like tournaments) where only the ticket costs no more than $ 2.2; study and read articles about banckroll and you will see that it will be good for you.

My first deposit was $ 10.
I lost this money for 3 hours.
After that, I started playing freerolls.
As for me, $ 10 for the first deposit is quite enough.
99% that you lose your first deposit, so for starters this is the perfect solution.

I think you need at least $100 to start with. There are so many games and the variance in them is so big since there are alot of players playing them. So even for microa at least $100.

If you play on pokerstars I think if you deposit 20 dollars you have a 20 dollars bonus. I believe the first money you deposit you will lose it in a month or two, so better start small cause the more you will deposit the more you will lose. If you are running good you can always deposit.

It really depends on your understanding of the game, how much you can lose without it effecting everyday life, and what you are are trying to accomplish (Have fun, make extra income, make a full time income, ect.). If your new to the game, don't have a lot of extra money, and you're just trying to have a little fun deposit the min, and play micros.

Now on the other side of the spectrum. If you have Played a lot, know the game, are taking it seriously, and trying to go pro. You are gonna need enough bankroll to cover variance at the very least 1/2 cash. So about 20K....


In other words, it really comes down to how much can you lose and still pay your bills. Along with how seriously do you plan on taking it.

Make your first deposit of 20$ and you'll have money to play MTT's and cash games.I advise you starting play MTT's because I think is easier than cashs but do what you want mate.Good luck in your journey and be welcome to CC.

it all depends on what you are going to play,
MTT, SnG, Cash Game ??
MTT buy 1 $, you can put 500 $ at least
SnG buy 0,50, 1 $ 100 $ already to see how your level is,
Cash starts with $ 100 buy 0.01 / 0.02
But francamenrte I would tell you to play some free and see your level of play,
start with $ 0.25 sng buy and see how your game against them is, then
you'll find out your game buy.

I think everyone has a different opinion. IMO you should play with no less than 50 buy-ins for the stake you play

This should be the amount that is not sorry to lose, while it is quite noticeable for you! My first Deposit was equal to Friday bar check.

Hello.
In my opinion, $ 10 is quite enough for PokerStars or 888.
Therefore, I recommend starting your career with the amount of $ 10.
Good luck.
