Just finished my second session of the day. End of day bank roll is $23.73. My ring game stats at 0.01/0.02 NLHE is:
During current Hold'em session you were dealt 132 hands and saw flop:
- 6 out of 16 times while in big blind (37%)
- 4 out of 17 times while in small blind (23%)
- 14 out of 99 times in other positions (14%)
- a total of 24 out of 132 (18%)
Pots won at showdown - 4 of 5 (80%)
Pots won without showdown - 4

Believe it or not, but the key to winning poker when under rolled is a tight-passive style of play. I read a thread in the "beginner's circle" where some guy turned 5 bucks into 100 (I think he's a TAG), and that's great. But IMO, it's also lucky. Proper bankroll is key for TAG style of play in ring games.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not knocking the TAG style, but when under rolled you HAVE to play tight passive. Minimizing your losses are way more important than maximizing your gains at this point. Lose a few coinflip races and you're on the rail. When I play the MTTs I go into my TAG style (failed to cash in the 2 MTTs I played today, one $0.50 and a $0.25), but only a tiny portion of your roll is at stake.


Who'da thunk it?
