Re: 1-3NLHE MAX $200, worth it?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Limelight in Sac? [/ QUOTE ] The very one. I play 3-6 and 4-8 there but hadn't been there in a few months. When I played the other day I noticed they had NL (finally) and was thinking about sitting down, however I only have like $250 for poker right now so I'm debating whether to stick to the limit games or go for the NL table. [/ QUOTE ] The NL can be very good, but can occationally be semi-tough. $250 isn't really an adequate roll for any game, but you could short buy at the 1/3 for $100 and give it a shot. If it's a good game and you run good, you can make a mint.

I advise to most always buy-in for the MAXIMUM allowed.

As long as the OP makes proper adjustments for stack sizes when making strategic decisions, then the hourly rate does not suffer as much as you would suspect (although it certainly does suffer). With OP's b-roll situation, I'd say that buying in short for $100 and playing a good short stack strategy at Limelight (or Lucky Derby's 2/5 200 max game) is the best way to build the roll quickly and with a reasonable risk of ruin given the roll and games available. OP also said that NL is his preferred game. Yes, with a proper bankroll then I agree, buying in full is preferred in most situations. This is not one of those times.
