Whenever I want to play in a tourney that's higher than my bankroll allows (Which isn't often) I just put the extra cash in to cover it, I mean it's only about £7 or something, I would spend £7 quid on a bottle of bucky and I am off the drink so have the spare cash lying around, it's kind of like going on a night out and spending £100+ which I am not doing anymore, so if I want to take a shot at a tourney that's $11 buy in, instead of wasting money on alcohol or other things, it is nothing really when it's not eating into my actual bankroll which is still intact. I see no problem putting an extra $11 in once a month or so to have a shot at a bigger tourney with a higher pay out, in this case it payed off and I gained some good experience. If it is extra funds I have and it is separate from my serious bankroll I see no problem with it, I see where you are coming from and understand though but I wasn't paying for the tourney out of my bankroll
I wouldn't do it if the tourney buy in was any higher than that tbh because that would be stupidity, would you rather go to a bar and spend £50+ on alcohol and a hangover or spend around £7 playing in a tourney for a bit of fun and have a sensible night in
