[QUOTE="noname65, post: 1693458, member: 78233"] One thing you should be aware of: if you cash out immediately after a big win, it's virtually guaranteed that you'll lose the remainder of your bankroll very quickly, and have to either cancel the cashout or redeposit. I'm not going to speculate as to why that is the case, but it's pretty much universal. The only time it's safe to cash out is if you've played for two or three months straight and kept winning on a relatively consistent basis and are withdrawing 10% or less of your site bankroll. Cashing out immediately after a win is a rookie mistake. If you really want to keep playing poker, put the $50 back and don't take it out again until you've built it up to at least $500. And the other poster is correct that MTTs are a grind. That's why one expert (I forget her name) recommends that a recreational player have a bankroll of at least 100 buyins to play MTTs (or 200 buyins for a pro who can't replenish their bankroll). With $10 on a site you should have been playing only the 10-cent tournaments, and with $50 you should play only the 50-cent ones. [/QUOTE]
