Great video! Love the great tips mixed in with your editing humour. This is the type of content the beginner poker players need, not people like gripsed that can't even play acting like your guru
Really enjoyed this. I fail with shot taking an moving down stakes . Also I play a lot of 6-max hypers/turbos . I can take a lot from this . So thanks Ben
It can be mentally very tough, our egos very often come in play. Sometimes rightfully so, thinking we beat the stakes we take shots at and that might be true, but even then we have to give ourselves enough room to keep firing and not run out of "ammunition".
Thank you so much man! Your videos are incredibly and help me feel more secure in this shrinking poker world. I'll be making the move outside the US to play on international sites.. Let's crush!
my personal problem is that i dont feel comfortable moving up stakes, i grinded my way up to 4k from about 500 and i do still Play 1-5$ mtt's, i really get upset when i have a Session with-40$ , so can you imagin how i feel when i Play lowstakes mtts and loose 120$? I now started to mix in some 11$ mtts to get comfortable. Also i noticed playing higher buy ins that i make just short Term profitabel decisions because i really want to cash or ladder up while on the micros i base my decisions on longterm results. I guess its just my mind since i really Think that i can beat lowstakes mtts.
well, you gotta accept that you will have loosing sessions. You have to take shots, when it doesnt go well, move down. You gotta try. In 10 years you might regret for never trying!
The problem with avoiding turbo SNGs is, that they are, what nearly everyone else wants to play these days. So if you limit yourself to regular speed, you might find, that games are not always even running on your poker site of choise. This is even more so with multi table SnGs.
my head would probably explode if i would receive so much messages. please leave that guy in peace with average situations and questions about it. cool vid! always evolving. kundus
Im struggling with thresholds. It happened when i hit like 700$, breaking the 1000$ threshold was so tilting. Now the same thing is happening at the 3000$ threshold. Keep swinging between 2500$-2900$ for couple of weeks now. So tilting, any advice i play cashgames mostly. Maybe a video about this topic. Anyway thanks for your effort you put in the community.✌🏾👍🏾
Lot of it comes mentally, those barriers aren't there but our mind throws them at us. Hiding your balance in the client may help and check it less frequently. Good luck!
Is Spin&Go-Max beatable? I never heard of anyone who can beat these. Variance is so sick there. How many Buy Ins recommended and also are there any strategy guides for that? Since it is a relatively new format, no one talks about that unfortunately.
hey I got a question; I want to grind the 16 man hyper satties on pokerstars. I was wondering what good bankroll management would look like if I wanted to grind them steadily? thanks!
for online cash games i've red/heard that most people think that 100 buy ins for low-midstakes cash is fine. do you think 100 average buy ins for mtts you play is ok. some people have said up to 1k buy ins of the average size mtt you play. what do you think is a good amount a good amount for online mtts reg speed and turbos.
So if I want to follow the 100 buyin rule, I play my first session and fall down to 92 buyins bankroll. What should i do then the next session? Keep playing the same stakes? Moving down seems a bit extreme?
Great Content as always. I'll get into the Tournament Classes when I have the bankroll to justify it. An off topic question: I like the look of your chair. How does it feel and what's the brand? Looking for a new one. Keep crushing.
50x the buy-in is the minimum you should have, as outlined in the video (16:01). it's already an aggressive limit, conservative would be higher (e.g. 100x buy-in) so if you were moving up to 10$ buy-ins and go below 500$ bank-roll, go back to a lower buy-in size.
Hi Ben your advice is spot on and I know as its exactly how I built my bankroll but I have a question for you, as I built my bankroll from mainly freerolls with some 50p & £1 games I kind of overvalue it as it took me a long time to build (my bankroll) even though Ive never deposited. So should I really be not overvalueing it or just stick to proper BRM now ? The 2 key areas I have the most difficulty with is moving up stakes & multitabling but moving down is easy for me. Its obvious your a great player yet you stay so humble
Awesome stuff !! Was quite surprised with the no Turbos/Hyper Turbo advice.. I absolutely understand there is much higher variance which could be incredibly discouraging for somebody starting out. However, the decisions are SO much easier when your short stacked.. I feel like learning push/fold is light years easier than trying to figure out what to do with your over pair once you've been C/R on a paired board and you're 50+ BB's deep.
I need advice from pro please have 2k bankroll and I took rye masterclass also neck from upswing should my buy in be like 22usd max or lower like 15 or 11
You should stick with 11s in my opinion with the odd 22, there isn't much of a skill difference between the players in each but you should play at a level where you don't care at all about losing a few buy ins. You'll just go on tilt after you get knocked out of a few tournies in quick succession otherwise. For me I like to have between 200-300. But I play large mtts where its common to go on a 50 tourney downswing
how much of an edge you have over a game/stake level should be a factor also, 150 buy ins for low stakes MTT's is overkill for anyone with a decent ROI over a few hundred games.
But would you advise to not play the big field tournaments at all? Tournaments like all the bigs and hots on pokerstars. I realy like them but I feel like I need 500-1000 buy ins to not go broke one day after a long downswing.
Thanks for sharing this information Ben, this is absolutely golden. Definitely the information i've been looking for and everything covered in this video.
Ben, you think that playing regular and turbo sit&go's at the same time to build a bankroll is fine or i should playing one speed(i want to make big volume playing one table 7$ 6max and full ring sit&go's)
hi, Ben! Thanks a lot for your advises and videos! Let me give a small advice to you ;-) Make your camera a little bit lower! You show a lot with your hands, and nonverbal information you give is important!
@@gharvilla5191 did you have to send them photos of your bank statement as well as routing and account info just wanna make sure they are legit before I get into it
hey ben awesome video... i was hoping you would be touching on the bankroll needed for 7.50$ sng multitabling... i saw you said 100-175d for 3.5d stakes... what would you say is good for 7.5#? and another thing.. i struggle with 3/4 tables.. is there any worth in just playing 2 at the same time or should we be aiming for 3? thank you!
Hi Bench! QUESTION: What do think of RunItUp poker site for rakeback, rake levels, traffic,built in "HUD" based on avatar facial expressions? Any feedback would be helpful.
Agreed! I play spins (HyperTurboSNG’s) and the average game length is around 7 mins. Sometimes 1 second lol up to my longest was I think 17 mins. Loads of action, loads of fun. But they are super high variance. My biggest downswing was 61 buy ins at $1 level. That hurt and that is not considered that bad. If you want to beat spins you need 100+ buy ins for recreational or 2-300+ buy ins for professional. IMHO.
ok,so, let's say there's a player who has 2000 dollars bankroll and he plays up to 11 dollars MTT or SNG. But what about satellites ? let's say that dude plays 11 dollars buy in satellite for Sunday million and he hits it. Should he attempted to play such a big tournament and put himself in a uncomfortable situation or should he stick with micros until he gets a proper bankroll ?
It's only ironically fitting that in "The Land of the Free," law-abiding, tax-paying citizens are forced to evacuate their homes and their country if they wish to pursue. . . (drugs? . . mafia activity? . . treason? . . world domination? . . no. . .). . . their dream of being an online poker player. . . (notice, I did not say their dream of being a PROFESSIONAL online poker player. For us here in the U.S. it really can be a dream to just be allowed to play online poker.) But hey, at least they allow me to drive on down to the gas station and blow my rent money on scratch-off tickets though. . .

Nice video man, i ship today 0.22cent PLO Bounty Hunter for 10 bucks 😂

This was literally the video i needed
what would you say was a good treshold to move down in stakes once moving up and running badly?
50x the buy-in is the minimum you should have, as outlined in the video (16:01). it's already an aggressive limit, conservative would be higher (e.g. 100x buy-in)
so if you were moving up to 10$ buy-ins and go below 500$ bank-roll, go back to a lower buy-in size.
