Topic: $50 to build my bankroll... Forum: Bonus Whores

The answer is this -- you can't be a poker bonus whore with $50. Sorry to break it to you.

You might get lucky and make it, but variance is very likely to eat you in the end. You need to play at a level you can afford until you're SURE you are a winning player. You're better off investing your $50 in learning good, winning poker, at micro limit, where you can absorb the variance. Play .01/.02 NL at UB if you're a NL player, or .05/.1 limit somewhere else if you're a limit player. Or maybe you don't know which you are...figure it out.

Take your $50, play the smallest games you can find, until you can beat them consistently. Because I promise, if you can't beat .05/.1, you can't beat .25/.50. It will take time, but build your roll by winning poker. Once you can win consistently...and you can, if you work at it...and build your roll to $200...then you can properly whore, and you will run way less risk of going broke.

I know this works...because that's how I did it. $50. That's how much I deposited 3 years ago. And I didn't see a bonus for several months. But I got better, and in the end it paid much more than trying to whore for nickels before I was funded.

Once you can win without bonus, your options for whoring are limitless.
