Just thought i'd try this, just wondered if people thought that it's possibly workable orjust a silly idea.

Play 2-3 tables, always have 20xbb at each.

start off on .25/.5 if i double up on a table, i shall move up a level and so on. If at table i lose more than a quarter of my chips then i move down again and start with 20 BB at that table, banking the rest.

Just thought i'd give this a try out. I knew someone that did it, and said that on somedays (very lucky ones) he would got up to a couple of thousand.

just womndered what your thoughts were.

heebing right?
this can be profitable and can be costly.. depends how good your luck is on the day

Not sure about the term.

Didn't think it would be that risky though. My bankroll on pacific poker(the site i want to try it on) is just over 200. Could you elaborate please, as perhaps there are things tha i haven't thought of??

BTW, i don't intend on doing this long term. Just a short term experiement to spice up limit play a bit.

That mean when you lose 5 BB you drop of one level ?
5 BB.... what do you expect to do with 5 BB anyway ? Nothing.
In a full-handed game(9p), that mean after 18 hands you already spent 3 BB just to survive without even playing a hand.

What you want to do, push with AA,KK,AK ?

20 BB is about the price it might cost to play a decent hand.

With only 20 BB you will be constantly pushed all-in.

1$/2$ with 40 $.... man what are you going to do with that ?

I totally dislike the idea.

What you can do is join a table with 20 BB, play ultra tight and push all-in pf with a monster, hope to double, leave and join another table buy-in 20BB, and on and on

Ok thanks for the advice. It was just an idea. Perhaps not very well thought out.



btw, i have been playing with 20bb on the tables anyway as that was what people on here recomended.

Anyway, thanks for the points.

This is in limit btw not nl.

I dont get the point of playing with 20bb in limit anyway.
I consider the buy-in being much less important in limit than nl.

How many BB would you recommend then?

I usually buy in with about 20bb, but his point that in limit it's irrelivant as long as you have more than 12BB.
