Full Tilt Poker Academy – Bankroll Management Challenge
Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail, Full Tilt Poker Academy
It took me awhile to get back in the swing of things but I’ve finally completed my second challenge on the Full Tilt Poker Academy. My first was the Sit N’ Go By the Numbers Challenge which went rather quickly thanks to a sick run of cards. This time around I went with the Chris Ferguson Bank Management Challenge. Ferguson is famous for his prop bet where he ran his bankroll from $0 to $10,000 with solid bankroll management. After watching his instruction video, I accepted the challenge and began the grind.
The goals and tasks of the challenge are designed to build proper habits with your bankroll as you work to build it through responsible play in cash games, SNGs and large field tournaments. Games that you should be able to beat with your skill set without risking your entire roll on a bad run at the tables. These bad runs will happen, it’s a matter of when not if. Sitting down to cash games with no more than 5% of your roll or an even smaller percentage in tournaments. As you bankroll goes up, you gain valuable experience and prepare you for the move up in levels.
It’s a proven method to improve your game and a worthy Academy Challenge. Details and my experiences after the jump.
