Stick out tongue [:P] Bankroll Management for Limit Hold'em
Reply Quote
I thought this chart / info might be helpful to other limit hold'em players. I discussed in a previous post but wanted to get into a little more detail here...

In limit hold’em a solid player can expect to have a win rate of 1 big bet per hour playing at a 9-person table. This can increase when you play short handed or on multiple tables. So if you are playing on (3) full $5/10 tables you should make on average (over hundreds of hours of play) about $30 / hour. One big advantage to the online player is the deposit bonuses and rakeback. Even if you are playing break-even poker you will be making money. This is an opportunity that the bricks and mortar casino player doesn’t have.

If you are just starting out I would recommend starting at a limit that gives you 250 big bets. With a bankroll of $500 you should start out at the $1/2 table. When you win 100 big bets you can move up to the next level. If you move up and lose those profits drop back down and rebuild. Here is chart that might help.

Limit Bankroll
$1/2 $500
$2/4 $700
$3/6 $1100
$5/10 $1700
$10/20 $2700

Using this method should help keep you from going broke. Good luck at the tables!
