So I've got $11.53 on stars and I'm wondering what you guys think is the best way to build it into a proper bankroll.

I've thought of taking my chances at 1c/2c NL with 2 buy ins, but I'm not too sure. I've also thought of playing the 10cent turbo's.

.01/.02 is your best bet...

Both Beavis and I took $10 BR's and turned them into $50+ in a week or so.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'm going to go with the 5/10c limit with the occasional 1/2c NL. I've just played some 5/10cent games and they seem to be pretty beatable. Although... I've just spotted SteveOH at one of my tables.

actually it was $6, well, first it was $80

3 buyins is not enough for any sng. 20 buyins is a bare minimum. and, turbos require more of a bankroll than normal speeds.

when i first started playing online poker i started with $300, in about 3 days i had $7.79. i was playing underrolled, and on tilt. took some advice from a friend and play .01 .02 nl, rather than buying in with my whole bankroll.

from $7.79, i had $418 in about a month. yes it was a good run, but i was playing well, and within my bankroll. i could afford a loss, or, a few losses.
thats when i found my true love, sngs, so i switched to partypoker and never looked back.

Yeah TA, you must certainly be right.

But I have a strange relation with time.

I think its 10 times more profitable to put a new $50 in the BR than to play with a short bankroll.

The 10 hours you may spend on 0.01/0.02 winning back those $50 could worth $400 on higher stakes

If you see what I mean.

Of course its simply an opinion

He could play some freeroll too if he absolutly dont want to re-buy.

completely agree man! obviously if you are playing well, the bigger your bankroll, the more money you make.

the reason i had to work up that $7 though was because i had deposited multiple times, and wanted to learn to play within my roll the hard way, to teach myself a lesson for playing stupid.

fyi, i like 50 sng buyins. seems like alot to you, but bad runs dont hurt you at all like they do for 20.
