Building A Bankroll from $10 on PokerStars
$10 is the minimum deposit on PokerStars, and often times, this is the maximum people tend to deposit at a time. So with that said, I am going to go over a strategy guide which will outline the quickest and most effective way building of a bankroll from just $10.
Playing cash games can be the quickest way to build a bankroll, but, if you’re anything like me, one bad beat and you are liable to tilt your entire life away…including your $10 deposit. So, for this article I am going to stay as far away from cash games as possible. Instead, we are going to focus on PokerStars most profitable games (in my opinion), $1.10 45 man turbo sit and goes. These games are very quick to fill up, and an advanced beginner player should be able to 4 table these with ease. These games are filled with the worst of the worst. No regulars would dare inhabit these waters because they all move up stakes to the $6 45 mans, and occasionaly you can find some at the $3.30 45 mans. The payouts for the $1.10 45 mans are as follows:
- $14
- $10
- $7
- $5
- $4
- $3
- $2
So, as you can see, 1st place is 14x your buy in. This is a perfect payout structure for any decent player trying to build a bankroll off of these! And with so many awful players, it is an easy task to get into the Top 3 regularly. With $10 in your bankroll, I recommend popping up four of these bad boys and getting to work. The way you want to play these is simple. In fact, it’s so simple, its bad. You have to play bad in order to win these. Now, I don’t mean you start limping with any two, or raising with QJo. I mean that when you get a “Top 10 Hand”, raise heavy! No matter how transparent you think it may be, do it! In fact, I prefer jamming over anything. I GUARANTEE more often than not, if you push AA pre, (and position doesnt matter!!), you are going to get KQ0, A10, QJ, even 46 calling you! Pushing pre is +EV. So the first (and maybe only rule) is to push pre with “Top 10 Hands”. If you get sucked out on, load up another one and smile.
Now you may be thinking theres gotta be more to it than this…but there isn’t. These are the easiest games to play to build a bankroll from $10. These can get pretty mundane after a few hours of playing, so if you are any good at Omaha H/L, I would load up a few $1.20 45 mans. They are not turbos, so they will take quite a while, but its a good mix to throw in your routine to keep you from killing kittens.
So this is my preferred way to build a bankroll on PokerStars from $10! I just deposited $10 on PokerStars, so I will try to put my money where my mouth is and try not to go broke. I will post my results sometime tomorrow and let you all know how much money I am up (or down). If you would like to try this out too, download PokerStars right now and start playing!
