Nikachu, how do you feel about having a BR split between two sites? Would you play within your site BR or you total?

While I feel rolled for 50nl having a total of ~1.1k I think I'd feel better just playing 25nl on both sites until I have >20bi on either. I like this because in the future, as a pro, you need closer to 50bi correct? Or is this too nitty for moving up?

I played very bad today. It was a day where if I played good I could make 20 BIs
WTF happened at about hand 6k on this graph? Were you double stacked on 4 tables and got felted??

If you can easily move money from one site to another then I don't see any problem having your bankroll divided. I have $2k on stars and personally am always afraid of busting it whenever I considered playing 5/10 or 3/6. Its not so easy for me to replenish it if I bust on stars.

Bottom line, do what feels most comfortable.

A lot of pros think that you need 100 BIs. :S In my opinion it doesn't matter how many BIs you have. I use 25 but maybe I can say that because my winrate is always very high and I can comfortably fly up and down the limits as I tackle variance (as I'm doing now). Perhaps people with weaker winrates require larger bankrolls.

Most important thing is you cash out enough to support yourself for at least a year. Then you won't have to worry about big downswings or if you have to move down limits cause you have a year to recover imo

this is pretty usefull if you're in a timezone where you can play morning at peak times and afternoon at a different peak time

like having an american site where 1 session is at peak time and 1 specific euro site where peak time is around your 2nd session

If its the same kind of site, its not really worth it before at least 400nl. Before that it's better to get used to your regs and just getting better at exploiting them while targeting fish. Once you're at 400 with practice, then it's worth it to find more fishy tables especialy if you are not always in the peak time on every site.

moving down limits just because of a small variance stretch means losing money on the long run. Your expected value drops by 50% each time..

I would never drop under 200nl even if i had 10bi left.. i'd just go at it even if i could only 1 table..

last month i had a bad downswing and was down to 3.7k online.. still didnt drop down and am back at 14k.. at 100nl i would prob have busted it or made 2k

Nikachu, how many tables do you normally play? Tiled or stacked? Do you think a lot of your good WR is because you pay attention to all the hands at all tables even if you are not in them?

At what number of tables would you feel your win rate would significantly decline? What number of tables do you think would maximize your hourly, even if your WR dropped a bit? GL dude...Like your CR vids.

I would have easily busted my roll with this advice. You move up and down as you must. Risk of ruin is way more important than hourly rate.

I move down rapidly with downswings but I also compensate by moving way up fast with upswings.

I play 6 tables tiled which maxamizes my hourly imo. I play best at 4. My winrate consistently becomes losing at 8 tables

I can hardly pay attention to any variables happening with 8 tables. So my winrate must be from paying attention with few tables.
