If you had $10, how would you divide it into buy in?

Recreationalplayer · Jul 31, 2023

0.22 - 0.55 Buyin tournaments

iceheart888 · Aug 2, 2023

10 tournaments of 1$ buy in

rvnhss · Aug 2, 2023

If it was $10 I had to spare and didn't care, 1 x $10 tourney. If it was my last $10 that I wanted to use to grow my bankroll, as many $0.10-$0.25 tourneys as I could.

1 x $10 spin & go

or

2 x $5 spin & go

or

omaha cash game

Depends on how much experience is available. It's better to start with 0.25 SNG, gain experience, work out a bankroll in order to get up to the limit.

I would particularly play 3 tournaments at 3.30

Personally I wouldn't buy into any game until I had over $25.00 and even then only buy-in for 50 Cent Single table games. Poker is not a get rich scheme, Sure you can win money playing Poker but eventually you will get dry spells, where you go on "Tilt" or get a losing streak, and will not gain any money for days or even weeks.
I set myself a limit of playing 10X $1.00 games, every day, willing to lose them all if I had to, Some days I did, at other times I would cash in every game, not great amounts but I still made a profit, and my bankroll was over $200, now it is over $600.
I do not consider myself a great player, but slow, steady progress is better than going broke every other day.

I would probably play in 55 cent buy-in tournaments. But honestly, if your bankroll is only $10, then it's best to just play freerolls.

I just won't waste money and will play freerolls.

But if you have a goal to invest that money, I would recommend spin&go with a buy-in of 1$. I think it would be the most correct option. As for tournaments, I agree that the best option, in my opinion, is 3 buy-ins at $3.30.

pokerD · Aug 3, 2023

I would definitely start several tournaments 5-6 pieces $1 and I would spend the rest on peding cash games

Falai_san · Aug 3, 2023

10 x 1$ .
More tournaments, more chances to win

CataRouillet · Aug 3, 2023

I think in this case I would play 10 $1 sit and go tournaments.

jonaselloco · Aug 3, 2023

18 MTT for $0.55 would be an option.
The one I would choose would be 20 SnG for 0.50.
This option is slower but more secure as well. A Sng is a tournament that if you are patient you can win it many times and other times enter 2nd or 3rd which already implies ITM.
I would not enter cash tables until I was prepared to play micro-limits and did not have at least between 50 and 80 boxes (that is, $100 to $160).
I would not play more than those limits.
Remember, your bankroll must be 100 bullets Example u$s 100 (100 bullets in MTT of 1.10)
$330 Bankroll (100 bullets in $3.30 MTT)
Bankroll u$s 200 (100 boxes in cash tables of u$s 2)
That is the way to build a bankroll, and logically study, without studying this beautiful game you will not directly build a bankroll)
regards and good luck

I'd break it up to so that I could as many of cheapest MTT's with 10 min blind levels possible. That way I'd get the most play outta my $10 while giving myself the best chance I have at growing it into a good bankroll and moving up. As I do better the longer the blind levels.

Cheers!!!

juan1579 · Aug 3, 2023

According to a rule I learned a long time ago, I must play 100 tournaments of $0.10, however I would play tournaments of $0.50 and a maximum of one dollar.

Leandro6803 · Aug 3, 2023

I would play tournament 0.10 cents, to have a good chance of being profitable.

balo · Aug 3, 2023

Play 0.55 and 1.10 tourneys and hope for the best.

jazux48 · Aug 4, 2023

And in your case, with $10, I would play tournaments with a buyin of $1.1 + $2.2, hit the draft and increased my bank, and then big tournaments)

To6Po6 · Aug 4, 2023

I will start with 0.25$ tournaments and try to build from there!

sincos · Aug 4, 2023

2 MTTs worth $5

COMIRRR · Aug 4, 2023

A spin&go game

Have you heard about such a concept as bankroll management?
Probably not, if you are proposing such a calculation. This approach to your finances will only lead you to disappointment.

IMO, following Bankroll management rules without a proper bankroll will lead you to disappointment.

10 dollars is not a poker bankroll. It's pocket change.

it's a waste of time playing for cents, not worth the time you spend playing.

Play the CC freerollls and try to build your bankroll risk free

kosha_ · Aug 4, 2023

I would match the bounty 2.16 - sell 50 percent shares - KF2)))

ninocabral · Aug 4, 2023

If you only have 10 dollars I suggest you play as low as possible 0.25 , 0.50, because whatever negative variance you have you will break the bankroll

vitas_top · Aug 4, 2023

I would play 4 2.20 tournaments and 2 1.10 tournaments.

valeski 28 · Aug 4, 2023

If you followed a good bankroll management ,playing frerolls would be your choice.

If you had $10, how would you divide it into buy in?
