    hi guys, last month i won a pts tourney on UB and ran up my 100 to like 500 bucks in a few days but ended up blowing it all. however i did earn 100 dollars in rakeback and i received it last week. im trying to just play sngs only now, do you guys think 100 is enough for 5.50's or should i start with the 2.40's, this is on UB. they have 5 minute levels and 10 minute levels, and 6 max/9man. keep in mind im trying to never go broke again and i wont be playing above my head anymore in cash games until i have a decent size roll for 10nl.

    thanks for the input.

    little bit but not as bad as u think for 2min levels.

    i started with a $100 roll and started with the $5 5 or 10min level 1 table sngs. u should do alright assuming u are winning player. GL at the tables.

    yeah i was figurin the 2.40's would be a waste of time, thanks for the input, i think ill start with the 5.50 9mans 10 min levels.

    2.40s are ridic rake. Don't play these.

    Play microcash games until you have $180, then switch to $5.50 SNGs until you fall under $180.
