Poker Bankroll Management - Online Cash Games Vs.

Why Is Bankroll Management Crucial When Playing Poker?.

But, that means your game simply has to stand up to the rigors. I understand some do not have the time or patience to do so, but that is the path I have taken and I am not deviating from it! What I realized is the grind is truly a mental thing as your options are limited. Free rolls and nothing but free rolls to reach your chosen goal with the reward upon reaching the goal to then start buying in. He of course states that he was super serious.

If you have read his write up on the challenge it is interesting as people would see his name and think he was joking around (in the earliest free rolls). That said, the poster is talking about the Chris Ferguson challenge and that was to make $10,000 starting with free rolls, and from his free roll winnings he bought into tourneys. building a bankroll starting with free rolls but then using winnings for buy-ins. It also needs to be underlined that I think people here (at CC) are often talking about two different things.building a bankroll using free rolls exclusively.or. Yes, it is possible but it takes perseverance and patience. Good luck, you must remain patient and realize this challenge could take years to complete, we're not as good as Chris Ferguson is!! (I'm honest with myself about that, ego is a huge negative in this game). It's still possible I could have a streak of 50 tournaments in a row where I just don't cash (2% rule means 50 tries at it) but playing 6.60's with a 1250 roll means I have 200 tries before I bust, and that's almost impossible. I only need one deep run every 10 or 20 tries to keep my roll going up. but usually I still just grind my preferred 6.60's because the truth is, I don't play to get rich, I play just because I love to play poker, and my 'risk of ruin' is even less playing 6.60's. but at 1250 this means I can play the 22's and in a series such as the OSS on ACR, a 22 can pay almost enough to get me to 10K if I win one. but that's not how I think about it, I realize that the most important part of the challenge is proper bankroll management, so I only 'invest' 2% maximum in any single tournament.

I'm currently 1/8'th of the way to the 10K goal at around 1250 bankroll, and literally all it will take is one big score. I was quite fortunate, once I had won a little more than 2 dollars I played a 2.20 tournament with my winnings and took 2nd place in it, winning about 175 if I recall properly.

Just realize that the hardest part of this challenge is the beginning part of it.
