My question was quite relevant to the original poster...
He states he has finally.......
learned to play poker WITHIN HIS BANKROLL!!!
How would he know if this is true?
Good guidelines: Limit 300BB
No limit 10-20 buy-ins (depending on aggression)
Successful tourney players will "Cash" 20% of the time (20/100)
Of those 20 cashes look for 1 final table on average.
Which brings about the question can someone make a living on MTTs alone?
Theoretically yes, Realistically Probably not.
A proper MTT bankroll should be in the neighbourhood of 100 times the buy-in.
Eg. you want to play $5+.50 MTTs Have $550 set aside for it.
Do people follow this logic? Not often. But there you have it.
As for winning $2 an hour I agree, Complete waste of time.
Pick up nothing but bad habits at the penny tables.
Play Freerolls, as much as possible.
And or play small buy-in SNGs.
After the first half hour or so most of the maniacs are out and you can play "somewhat" realistic poker for free.
After all that, I still want to know how he is so sure he is playing within his bankroll finally ( and for how long) if he is unsure of what "playing within" his bankroll even means.
