Definitely respect your BR. Once it is gone, it is not easy to replace
I started building my Bankroll by placing in a pokerowned freeroll on Carbon Poker. Never risk more than 25% of your bankroll and know when to call it quits for the day. Play every tournament/cash game the same no matter what the buy-in. Learn from your mistakes and build on your skills. I started out with $.80 and now I am close to $100 without paying a dime.
So Chachi, what did you play when you had the .80? I have got about $1.50 now from Carbon freerolls and it's sort of hard to pick a game. There's the .06 rebuy daily tournament and the .25 tournaments. But I sort of think I need to just try to freeroll up a bit more.
I did make sure to pay into a dollar of tournaments so I could get in the Earth tier $25 freeroll. Any other advice? I have given up on bumblebees. Watching them and playing in a couple, they seemed a luck fest. Perhaps it is just my natural horribleness at thinking about poker.
I think if you only play freeroll tourneys there is no way to lose your bankroll. You should play it until you have a good size and move up slowly. As soon as you are uncomfortable with a blind/buy in, you should move down.
donkeys will get you some cheese but you better know the good ones, oh and, practice. practice. practice
Definitely knowing when to quit for the day is solid advice. When its not your day....its not your day.
