Default Re: Starting out with $100 - advice needed

[ QUOTE ]
I plan on depositing $100 after going broke (playing over proper BR guidelines). This will be my first deposit on Poker Stars.

I typically play NLHE, SnG, and the very rare MTT. I have started to learn some other games as well (any of the HORSE games).

What would you recommend to build a BR starting with only $100?

Thanks!
John

It would be nice to have the deposit be at site where you could get some rakeback as the rakeback could buffer your losses starting out. This said, I don't think (but I'm not sure either) that there are sites where you can get rakeback and play within the guidelines of a $100 bankroll (assuming your not a huge winner).

If you are just starting out you are probably not a "good" player yet and are probably going to lose some money. To limit these losses and allow you to play longer on the $100 I would recommends starting very low (2NL or whatever). When you feel like you have a handle on things and start playing even-money or being a slight winner poker you can try some higher limit games.
