Welcome back to poker and to these forums Tom. As always, I wish you the best of luck and hope you enjoy 2p2 here!

Now, I'm going to be a little rough here. I think playing the $4 180s with your one time limited deposit of $80 is sort of silly. Sure, you can run good and deep in one of these and cash 1st and have your bankroll on the way, but it is not very uncommon for the BEST of 4/180 players to go on cold streaks/downswings or variance of 10+ games, which if that happened to you, your roll would be gone. I would suggest grinding out the $3.25/45s on Stars to begin with. Then when you get to say $150, start throwing in a $4/180 hoping to get the win. I think the minimum anyone should be playing $4/180s from their variance with is $200. I'm sure there are people here who will disagree saying that it's possible to play with $80, but if you're playing on a one time limited deposit that you would not be interested in redepositing, I would try grinding out some smaller SNGs (maybe even the $1.75/18s) before the 4/180s.
