Bankrolllllllllllll Question

[mikeysong 0]

so for short handed LHE, I always see the number 500 being tossed around to play comfortably, which is something I agree with. Right now I'm almost at 3k playing 3/6 shlhe, when I hit 4k I wanna take a stab at 5/10 (100bbs max). I've taken a few shots in full ring and feel quite comfortable doing it. Haven't played too many hands short handed tho. Any objections? If I start feeling a lot of doubt then I'll just close the tables and go back to 3/6.o, stats incase ppl need to see itvpip: 29.70vpip sb: 30.66folded sb to steal: 84.47folded bb to steal: 50.17att to steal blinds: 36.29won $wsf %: 47.64went to sd: 35.69won $ at sd: 51.42pf raise: 23.77-.37bb/100, 2500 hands @ wpxI know 2500 isn't enough hands but still, I would like some suggestions please. I've played a lot of LHE this summer and have returned to short handed hold'em about a month ago...been a little lazy tho

Shots are fine.Just set a limit, aka 100 bb, as you are doing, and move down accordingly, should things not go well.I would consider beating your current level first though - Zach

If you are WPX aren't you crushing everyone with your rakeback alone? You should be able to move up to 5-10 easily after this month, but if you want to take a shot, like Zach said, 100BB set deal, don't rebuy. Buy in for that amout, and stick to it.

yeah rakeback i make like 8-10bbs per hour i thinkAlthough I don't crush wpx, I've noticed that when I've played at other sites, my play has been above most so the -.34 doesn't bother me at all.Well, just a little cuz I wanna crush those little bastards D:

I play comfortably at 300bb at each level.From my experiences at PokerStars, there is a lot more fluctuation in 5/10 games than there is at 3/6.Take a stab at it.Don't get in over your head.Pull back, and recover your losses.And then try again.--cm

Shots are fine, but make sure you're really beating your current level before moving up. Based on your stats and my experience I'd say you're running really good right now and could very easily hit a pretty bad downswing soon. Your stats look ok for a good player but have a potential for huge swings, so be careful.

i would get in a lot more then just 2500 hands before making any real decisions. Seriously, in short handed, you really needs tons and tons of hands before anything can really be decided

Agreed, 300 BB is plenty when you have a rake back deal and bonus to clear.
