never paly 0.01/0.02 tables. just deposit a few hundred bucks and play $1/$2 Limit.

I think the best way to maintain a bankroll is not playing lol

There is no such thing as BR management if your account is like under $20. some people say even under $50.

Correct there really isn't much bankroll management if your under $20. Pretty much everything is a risk. But you can still follow sound rules to avoid risk of ruin. Try these rules, they work real well.

"1. Never ever get into a cash game or SNG tournament where the buy in is more than 5% of the entire bankroll that you have. You can break this rule in case your bankroll is very small and you are going to play a Sit and Go or cash game where the buy in is lower than $2.5

2. Don’t join a MTT (Multi Table Tournament) where the buy in is higher than 2% of your current bankroll. By not risking you will be able to keep a lot of your money intact. This rule applies unless the buy in at the tournament lower than $1.

3. In case you have managed to win at a cash game and your money that you have at the table represents more than 10% of your online poker bankroll, then you should cash out of that table the moment the blinds are going to reach you." Chris Ferguson

Back up to about $ 30.00 . I believe there is always a Bankroll management even if it is 20,50, or what ever. This may not sound like a lot, but if even if you have nothing, you're trying to build up correct? (The idea of free rolling) With $20, You could join two $10 buys and not cash! On the other end, you could cash and win say $200 or what not. I think the idea of BR is to keep building with out losing the majority of your roll.
