Hey 2+2 Community,

My Name is Joe, I`m a 20 year old Sport Student from Cologne. I have been playing Poker for about one year now and burned a couple of Bankrolls due to mental weaknesses. I want to step up my game and build a solid Bankroll! I created this thread in order to make sure i stick to my Bankroll management.

I start with a deposit of 50$ and try to build it. I will grind 6 max SnGs (turbo and hyper on PS). My strongest game is Chashgames but I love playing SnGs think i can handle variance easier when playing the game type thats most fun form e (what do you think about this point of view? Should i play the Games with the highest EV or the games i love to play? Eg. Play 2NL => 100$ and 5NL =>150$ and then start grinding SnGs with decent BR (100BI)?

<<<< BRM >>>

50$ = 1.5$ SnG
105$ = Shots 3.5$ SnGs
175$ = 3,5$ SnGs
210$ = Shots 7$ SnGs
350$ = 7$ SnGs
650$ = Shots 15$ SnGs
1000$ = 15$ SnGs

I know 30 BI is an aggressive start but I think my edge is big enough in 1.5$ SnGs to build my roll to 100$ savely.
I want to 4-table Hypers or 6-table Turbos. When I take shots i 2-table turbos (because I think edges are bigger in turbos) and i want to play my A-game. I will start with a very Basic HUD (5-8 Stats), and add Stats as i clime levels because I think that there aren´t enough Regs in the 1.5$ SnGs to use a HUD effective I Keep track of my results with PT4.

<<<GOALS>>>
STICK TO BR => move up and down
( ) Reach 100$
( ) Reach 350$
( ) Reach 1000$ <3
( ) Reach 10.000$ …the dream
( X out of X) Study 10 min before each Session

I will start to grind tonight after university and post my first results after the session :P moreover I try to update this post after every session and post 1-3 interesting spots and update the current level of my Bankroll.
What do you think about my BRM, Goals and general views on building the roll?

I´m thankful for every answer, thoughts on my strategy and comments on my project.
Btw. Sorry for my bad English!

See you at the tables, Joe <3

Nice! gl with your goals subbed

thx man

I´m new on 2+2 how can I import a graph from PT4? btw the first session went decent, BR is up to about 63$ now further information following when I´m able to upload the Graph

( 1 out of 1) Study 10 min before each Session

Today was a good day at and off the tables

I figured out how to upload Graphs (hopefully)

moreover I realized a couple of things the first two sessions:
- My edge at 1.5$ seems to be bigger than i thought
- Games are incredibly soft
- I have to put in a lot of work to improve my game! (borderline spots, ICM, bubble situations)
- I only play 6max Hypers since rake is much lower than in turbos (why ever?...maybe someone can explain it to me? )

Current BR is at 103.79$ after 10$ bonus I got credited today (first deposit bonus)
I am very happy my BR is growing so fast even with me sticking to solid BRM, i will change my plan and not take shots at 3,5$ yet... most probably i will take the first shots at 130$-150$!

Results of my first two sessions:

Had a good session today, after another 10$ first deposit bonus and 20$ rake-back the roll is up to 129.96$

moreover I have decided to upload graphs every 4-5 sessions to track my progress since a graph after every session seems to be useless :P I´m not sure about shot taking yet since I think loseing 5 buyings at 3.5$ SnGs would hurt my roll more than winning 5 would benefit... however I think I atleast have to try to take shots when i reach 150$ (maybe with a conservative stop-loss) What do you think about my Shot-taking strategy?
