My personal strategy for low bank roll building

[source47]

i love SNG´s its such an easy way to pumb ur BR i wish ill have 5$ to get back at it in full tilt

SnGs are the best, I find.

Ring games have too many ppl who wait for hours on jj+ or aj+.

I've been doing a lot of 1 table SNG's lately. I've been doing ok, but getting more 2nd and 3rd than first.

I then signed up for a sat tourney to work on my FT academy challenges. I signed up for a sat to the BLT, which actually pays out better than the single table SNG. (unless you take 1st of course, but with me, i was getting more 2nd and 3rd).

1 Table SNG buy-in 1.20
Profit
1st 3.30
2nd 1.50
3rd 0.60

1 Table SNG Sat to BLT buy-in .80
Profit
1st - 3rd Ticket to BLT worth 2.20
You can cash it in for a profit of 2.19 after they take their fee

The games are a lot softer and fishier than the regular SNG, and pretty easy to place in the top 3.

Is there something I'm not seeing here, or is this a decent strategy to get my BR up so I can start playing the $2 SNGs? I can see this as a better long term strategy (unless you're consistently taking 1st on regular SNGs.)

Also note, there are lower buy-ins to this tourney, .45 or so, but it only awards 1st the ticket, and 2nd your buy-in back for -.05 profit after their rake.

Yes, lots of little loop holes like this if you can find em. PS had the Storm Satties that worked the same way for me. Nice post. -Cookies

I agree

I just bring my .44 Magnum and usually finish in the money.

I would suggest double or nothing's. Pretty easy to crush. Although some sites don't have those... Carbon and PokerStars do though.
