What is your comfort zone when playing poker?

wilpinsi · Jun 21, 2017

Many players say they like to play micro, because when they lose they do not put much of their money at risk.
I see this in two ways, often meeting players who say they play 40 tables of 0.10 cents at a time,
I believe it's a tiresome way to reach our goal and raise our winnings, so in everyone's opinion, what would be a comfortable value to play and get a good return?

Well, I think it should be normal to play at tables that do not go beyond my bankroll. Although I must confess that sometimes sitting at 2 Zoom tables can make me a satisfactory day. It all depends on my mood.

Money is not an object

Doesn't matter the but in for me, tourney style is the same no matter the buy in. Comfort though comes in the form of sng's, really easy to place second and first comes often. Low money tables though pay more often

If you have to play, have fun and concentrate. Be careful and you will get gains whatever your game. I play micros and freeroll. But always one at a time

Hello! I want to draw your attention to the fact that by choosing which bet to play, you should not be afraid of losing it. A lot of players switching to big limits, losing their bankroll

You cannot find live tables at a casino for less than $1-2 or $1-3. When I play online, it depends on my bankroll and the amount of time I have...if I have maybe ½ hour to play before dinner, I always choose lower stakes. I play for fun and I know that I will never make any significant money, so I consider anything I start with as already spent money...if it keeps me going for a few weeks; great.

I also like to play in freerolls and micro stakes so do you know what a lot to lose will not be able to get pleasure from the game

Say you'll fail and you're bound to prove yourself right.

Rational madman what limits do you play? Just curious

I am playing some level deeper than I should by bankroll management and feel very comfortable with it. I played a long time very aggressive brm to reach some level according to the brm table, that I posted here:
https://www.cardschat.com/forum/tournament-poker-59/bankroll-management-328651/
Meanwhile I should level up some by this table, but I feel not so comfortable with the higher levels. So my brm became meanwhile very conservative, compared to the money I have won already. Andrew Popov gave me some really good thoughts about this in this thread:
https://www.cardschat.com/forum/tou...g-your-level-at-sngs-333355/post-3731773.html

And I also think it is very exhausting, to play too many tables. And then you also need to look how many money you have in game now in my opinion.

Bankroll management is crucial, playing with scared money is one way of going broke quickly.
Never play tired or drunk lol

2dizzYMATH · Jul 22, 2017

Zoom,.. is my confort zone. I like adrenaline!!

SlavaUa · Jul 22, 2017

Hi for me it is comfortable to play 1-3 tables if there is more it is problem to concentrate to the game. And to play even 10 it is impossible for me as to 40 it is unbeliveble!!!

AlayneBarros · Jul 22, 2017

For those who already have a bankroll at least above 100dolar it would be ideal to play tournaments of 2.20, 3.30, nothing that exceeds 5 dollars, thus giving to have a return without jeopardizing large sums.

WOLF55555 · Jul 22, 2017

I don't play more than 4 tables at the same time. Bankroll 100 Bojinov limit. And I'm comfortable to play.

imnoobpoker · Jul 22, 2017

When I'm playing poker, I always look at the buy-in and my balance -> this hold me in my comfort zone. Don't want to risk my entire balance, which should make me really nervous.
