Okay so i have a healthy bankroll now for the level i play at 1250 at 11 MULTITABLE SIT AND GOES (30 and 50 people). So i ve decided to take a 100 bucks out of that and hit the 100 nl tables. Im planing on playing tight and parlaying that money to next step every time i can. I know this is foolish and its out of my bankroll, but you have to live a little right? lol

So my game plan is to hit the 100nl, make enough for 200nl and so and and see how it goes.

what do you guys think?

$1250 is not enough for 100NL.

Also, are you familiar with ring play? You seem to be more into SNGs.

no im not goin to commit my entire bankroll to 100nl, just 100bucks. And basicly go for broke on the 100 bucks not my entire bankroll. Ie if i win i step up to 200 nl and keep increasing seein how it goes while not touchin the rest of my roll. O ya ive been playin ring games for over 2 yrs, i just started sit and goes about 13 months back

If you don't my putting your 100 bucks on 31 black and spinning the wheel, then I guess this isn't a bad idea.

Variance WILL make you lose that hundred, more and more certainly depending on how long you keep moving up.

Well it sounds like you are basically just doing it for fun so go for it if you want.

Why not use it to help clear a bonus somewhere else instead if youre getting bored with your current site/game
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

You're just dumping 100 bucks to whoever happens to pick it up. Especially if you play 200NL as soon as you get $200.

Reminds me of one of those stupid "funny images," I'm going to adapt it a little bit.

Playing out of your bankroll is like arguing on the internet: even if you win, you're still retarded.

Let me know when you plan to sit down with that $100, so I can sit at that same table!

The point is..this is a HORRIBLE waste of money. Do you understand the concept of variance at all?

at the same time, its your money, so more power tuuuu yahhhhhhhh.
online br: $14,000, @400NL full ring, 100NL 6 max
