Without strict compliance with the rules of bankroll management you will not win.
Bankroll management strategy with short stacks
You can count on a guaranteed profit only after a long time, so you should have by no means a short bankroll.
You need to have a bankroll strictly defined values:
• Bankroll less than $ 50 allows you to play only the stakes $ 0.01 / $ 0.02 and $ 0.02 / $ 0.05.
• $ 50 - $ 120 - a $ 0.05 / $ 0.10
• $ 120 - $ 150 - a $ 0.10 / $ 0.20
• $ 150 - $ 300 - limits $ 0.15 / $ 0.25
• $ 300 - a $ 0.25 / $ 0.50
Each time, sitting at a table, you have to take a strictly fixed amount:
• Limit $ 0.05 / $ 0.10 - take $ 1
• Limit $ 0.05 / $ 0.10 - $ 2
• Limit $ 0.10 / $ 0.20 - $ 4
• Limit $ 0.15 / $ 0.25 - $ 5
• Limit $ 0.25 / $ 0.50 - $ 10
If your stack because of the loss was reduced by 25%, then you need to buy more chips to the original size of the stack.
If you win and your stack is increased by 50% or more, then you should leave the table.
Example: Your bankroll is $ 50.
you can only play NLH $ 0.05 / $ 0.10.
Each time, intending to come to the table, you must take exactly $ 2.
If your stack is reduced to $ 1.50, you need to buy chips up to $ 2.
If you win, and a stack of up to $ 3.00 or more - immediately go to another table, again, with the sum of $ 2.
When your bankroll would be $ 120, you can settle on a $ 0.10 / $ 0.20.
But not before.
