do micro tournaments until you build it up to like 50 dollars

bankroll building is all about bank roll managing. if you can master this then you can master any poker mountain you attempt to climb. Its kinda like the turtle racing the rabbit. slow and steady will show profits.

I have started using my bankroll to play tournaments. In 10 days I have played 125 tournaments, along with a few cash sessions. I have managed to get two straight up firsts place, both of which were for small cashes: $120 and $140. I have made several other final tables and have 3rd, 4th, 5th, 5th + a few others to add to that resume. I have min cashed or a little over min cashed in about 10-12 others. Overall I am feeling great about this performance. I have taken sick beats deep such as AA < AJ all in pre chipleader pot on bubble. I lost KK < AQ to go to HU and JJ < A9 for 5th. Overall I feel like I am playing great and running at least average despite these beats.

Carbon Bankroll: $1482.90

I realize I have put up a lot of scores in 125 games, and I dont expect to keep up with this performance. I have increased my bankroll by 50% since I started playing MTTs. I am going to just focus on playing great poker and if I fall below $1000 I will cut out all turbos and $11 buyins until I re-evaluate my play. For now I will play anything under $11 freezeouts and $5r. I will try to play all the good structured tournies, but will play turbos as well.
