best way to build a Bankroll with 10$

I kinda disagree w/ you here, Brian. I read Chip's original reply, and I thought it was a little rough ... but hey, who am I to criticize someone for being mean?

I think it's funny that you automatically stick up for Chip (not that he needs you on his side). He's given you some nice compliaments during the last few days, so I can understand how you feel like he's your best friend. You've done it to me before.

Don't forget about a month ago, when me, TP, and Chip were all morons, the forum sucked, and all that other shit. But whatever... I'm not trying to start stuff, just pointing out that it's more than interesting considering who's side you're automatically on.

Be objective.

Im not on anyones side..I hate everyone but the truth is most of chipfish's replies are like that. If you remember someone said the same thing about a month ago about chip being mean to them. I was just pointing out facts, not trying to make friends. If I need a friend I will buy a dog not a faceless name on the internet.

Never tried to be friend's with you either just pointing out that you are a good player. As for the moron comment well dont have excuse for that sorry though.

[Aequitas58]

I've seen Chip give very helpful replies. He's a good player, and I give him alot of respect... so his replies aren't always mean, as you suggest.

He's done well in the TPF events, seems to post good results, and I can understand anyone would want and accept his advice. But, in this case, he's being a jerkoff. John's just asking for some help from other players... and being a moderator of this forum, I expect more - but that's just me.

[BrianSwa]

I see your point Aeq, and by no means do I think he dosent give great advice. Has given me terrific advice in the past, I just dont think he was being overly mean. But like you said thats just how I saw it, getting way off track from origional purpose of the post. John is winning a book for sure

[Aequitas58]

Good. I hope he does.

Oops, is that another post?

[bigjohnstud2o]

Please lets not subject this thread to that kind of talk. Im just looking for some good advice. Im ut to 30 playing the .05/.10 nl tables about to call it a night. i will let everyone know how it goes. 20 more minutes for the night

[BrianSwa]

That talk? welcome to the forum john If you think that is bad should of been here a couple months back! Anywho good job on that roll!

well ive had some success with stars.... doing a lot of differnet things.. i got 10 bux from lou, got it up to 50 by playing heads up matches, then i won 1st out of 2000 in a 1$ entry tourney so i had 400 more to play with.... then i used that to pay off debts and started over with 3 bux, playign 1 cent / 2 cent blinds, built it up, played a combination of low no limit cash games and sit n gos until i had 50 again. then i just stuck w ith .25/.5 no limit, and have built it up to $350. just do whatever youre best at, but at low stakes. its a pain to build up in low LIMIT, i highly reccomend low stakes no limit cash games.

[BrianSwa]

well as I posted in another thread I started with $25 and now have over $500 starting at those low limits. Im not big fan of low limits, much rather be playing 2/4 but if you have to start somewhere then its not bad. It can be done but its very boring!!

[ChipFish]

I agree that the low-limits must be boring.
Heck, I would love to be playing $100/200 NL...
But let's face facts....
Unfortunately, that's what alot of people refuse to do.
They refuse to face facts....
They continue to play in games in which they are not properly rolled for.

Some of them win.
Many more lose.

If I were to go broke, (which will only happen when I take a shot) then I know that I would be unable to play the penny games to work my roll back.
I would put money aside and re-deposit a starting roll.

I have alot of respect for those that are willing to grind out a roll at the pennytables, without risking their roll in higher limits....
These are the players that have the "dedication" to learning the game...
These are the players to have on your buddy list, and to avoid in your games at all costs... They know the value of a Dollar.
