Beggar goes from busto to robusto to... - Page 2 - Internet Poker

The thing is that i won't go busto. Unlike my moron friends who like to deposit 50 buks on fulltilt and immediately head the heads up tables where their pocket aces get beat by some dude that hits a two pair with a 9,3 offsuit, im gonna play on low stakes cash games and build my way up, never risking losing all the money.

And if you run bad?

$5 is not a deep enough BR, even for 60-cent capped games.

are you questioning his bankroll management?

I, for one, am convinced. He oughta be sellin' shares of his action imo.

I can't get this damned eChecks thing to work. I'm gonna just bring some cash up to the Western Union.

Sit tight, lil buddy!

FWIW, play the capped games. Your BR will last a bit longer.

Gamble $5 to maybe get it back? I don't follow your logic.

Small blind cash games have small risk but high reward. You can quickly win a couple of buks and win money risking cents.

Lol @ playing .02/.04 on a $5 BR.

OP, if you do get some dough, .01/.02 cap NL is the way to go, if you ever plan on paying your backer back.

He's still waiting for your WU to go through. Who needs MickeyD's when you've got Markusgc?
