I have serious bankroll management issues – and after analyzing my SNG work, I decided it was time to consider moving into cash games. Armed with a miniscule 15% rakeback deal on Full Tilt Poker, I set off for some 6-tabling at 0.05/.10 No Limit Hold’em (6max) games.
I’ve played about 3500 hands now (average about 700 a day, I’m not a hardcore player); and manage a very mild winrate of 7bb/100. The good thing is my EV is around 15bb/100 and that’s all before rakeback.
Up exactly $80, I look forward to seeing how the next couple weeks go. I’ll obviously be keeping you posted!
