When I see a player sit down with
(a) a lower than the norm buy-in ($3/6 being approx $150) or (b) an odd number ($102) I will try and isolate this player a little more... Chances are high that they are playing scared in option A, and playing with their entire bankroll in option B if option (c) comes around where both criteria are met,... I will absolutely attack this player. I have 9-4off? I have a chance to isolate this guy? 3 bets and reraises all the way. They turn into folding machines more times than not.... at least in my experience anyways... As for having a bankroll of $1800 for $3/6.... That much is true, HOWEVER, since you are depositing to and from your bank-account, I would say it is safe to assume that you DO indeed have this much.... It is not necessary to actually HAVE $1800 in an online account to be properly bankrolled, but in fact it is only necessary to have ACCESS to $1800....

Precisely. You need to be ok with (in this case) dropping $150 and knowing you can still reload for $1350 more. If dropping that $150 means your poker career is over, then you are WAY over your head playing 3/6.

LOL, no, i get paid in cash, my bank is just for bills and poker deposits and withdrawals. If i lost it i wasnt bothered, i was $100 up ish at that time anyway, so i was playing with profit, and it was all short term money, i just wanted to see if i could play at 3/6. Looking at the way i played, i would say yes, but i need the bankroll to do it. If i could afford it i would, but ill stick to 1/2 untill my bankroll building is done. It was at $900 from a $50 deposit, but i had to cash as i was laid off work injured for a month, and sick pay is crappy.

Again, please post links to old threads, if you want to show them to someone. I see no good in bumping random stuff and cluttering up the main page of the forum with outdated threads.
I deleted your post in the one that was 13 months old, effectively un-bumping it. |

But i LOVE going after people like option 2 knowing that its their entire bankroll. That is pretty mean-spirited in me, and the fact that there is some 'online detatcment' from the actual person sitting there probably adds to that, but i love trying to bust those people.
