Building a bankroll at micro NL?
This will sound absurd, but I'd like to get a little advice on building a bankroll playing .01/.02 NL on stars.
Mainly I'm concerned with what type of win rates people see at these stakes. Here's the absurd part. About 6-12 months ago I was decent winner in the $1-2, $2-4 NL games. I ran about 5.5 PTBB/100 over ~ 150,000 hands. For various reasons I withdrew my money and reserved ~ $5,000 for playing poker. Life happened and I didn't play at all for the past 6 months or so. Now, I still have this $5,000 and I could get it online and just jump back into .5/1 or something, but since it's been forever since I played I'm considering just building a roll from nothing. I had some stars FPPs and played 70fpp sngs, won one, used the T$ to play $2 HU sngs, and now have a little over $12 in my account. So, any estimate on how long to get a roll of ~ $250 so I can play NL 25 and start to work on a real roll? Feel free to make fun of the plan, but if anyone has experience at this level please let me know what kind of winrates are possible. Thanks |

Re: Building a bankroll at micro NL?
games are too tough post legislation to have a big winrate.

Re: Building a bankroll at micro NL?
If u wanna be serious about this id start by putting in about 500 bucks and playing .10/.25 nl. Its a good spot to start learning and its not a large portion of ur 5k. Post hands here and engage in convos about everthing u dont understand
i really dont recommend starting so low especially when u have money to start much higher |

If you really were a decent winner at NL200/400 you wouldn't have forgotten how to play and would also know the answer to the questions you asked.

Re: Building a bankroll at micro NL?
Wait... why do you want to start from scratch? Youre a 5.5ptbb winner at NL200, NL400 and you want to start again at the bottom? If you're rusty and need to get back into your game, why not just start from NL50? Having a 5k roll and starting back at .01/.02 NL is just a waste of time. I highly doubt you would learn anything from there.
I would reccomend you play NL50 for a few thousand hands, and see if you can still beat it. Then move up/down if needed. |

Re: Building a bankroll at micro NL?
I'm not looking to learn the game. It's more a matter of there's a lot of unknowns in my life right now and rather not put the 5K in play. If it's going to take 6 months to make it NL 25 or NL 50, where I feel I can grind a real roll in a decent amount of time, then it's not worth it. If it takes me 3 weeks, not so bad.
I only mentioned my past play to give you an idea of what my skill level was back then. I'm not starting down here to learn the game over. I'd simply like to minimize my risk wrt to the 5K. I have a real job, and I'm not in a spot I need to make a bunch of money quickly. Before we get into a discussion over whether or not I'm making this up, why would I? My wife and I recently had a baby who was born with some health problems. That's why I'd rather not put the 5K in play right now. So, does anyone have a serious estimate of what kind of win rate is possible at the smallest micro stakes? |

Re: Building a bankroll at micro NL?
I'm a total beginner, was even more clueless from 0 - 2000 hands. My winrate at NL2 is/was (have moved up to NL5) 12BB/100 over 7500 hands
EDIT: On stars |
