1st congrats on your win. Its always a great feeling when you increase your bankroll that quickly.

As for what to do. While you won but i would not suggest jumping up in stakes. You need to work on playing within smart bankroll management. If you look around you will hear story's all the time of someone winning big and them being broke sometime later. Why? Just because they won big once they play outside there true skill level and the sharks take there money. They will think they are so much better than they are and then wonder why it happened. Some of these story's are from people who have won Major events. Enjoy your win but do exercise goo bankroll management.

It's not a good idea to play $4.40 tournaments with a $6 bankroll. Still not good idea to play $4.40 MTT's with $84 bankroll. If I was you I would play $1/$2 MTT's and keep playing freerolls to build a more comfortable bankroll.

Why would you withdraw that ? You played in a 4.40 pko you now have 20x buyin that's still not that great if your playing 4.40. I'd say drop those and play 2.20 and $1 tournaments. Keep your bankroll on the ups, try get it too 150 200 then move up to 4.40 and keep going, slow and steady or fast and rapid don't sweat whichever way you can get it done

I took fifth place in the PKO 4.4 Rumble and jumped from 4.4 to $84, the bankroll was $6, the deposit was $ 10, now it's hard to understand what to play next and in general it's hard to understand whether I really played well or I was just very lucky.Can you please give me some advice on how you handle this situation.So far, I have come to the decision that it is better to withdraw most of the money.

I think you got lucky, just one tournament doesn't say anything about your gameplay, whether you are a winner or not, my best advice to you is not to invest your entire bankroll in a few tournaments, the volume of games has other benefits besides emancipating the long term, such as decreasing dispersion and also generates more learning and discipline.

I think with your bankroll you could play MTT's from $1.10 to $2.20, PS has a sng that turns mtt on demand $1.10 KO, I suggest taking a look later.

Take off half of it and play for the rest. So that in case of bad luck, you lose half and not all.

I started with a deposit of $20 and it significantly increases my bankroll and I think that helps to try to face higher levels, withdrawing the profits I do not think it is an option unless it is very necessary

Hi Friend.

It is a good jump of money, but if you want to continue in this and win more, you should not withdraw the money and you should play tournaments of 1 dollar, or multi-tables of 0.25 or 0.50, I play that and the truth is that it pays, little by little I'm making money while trying to jump big by playing $1 tournaments or satellites.
