I already have 4.5 dollars in one room, and 1.5 dollars on pokerstars, I believe that I will increase my bankroll, up to 10-20 dollars, but what to do next. cash games are leveled instantly, I'm just not interested in playing them, and besides, I don't know how. maybe it's a spinendgo/sitendgo, or an MTT with a mini buy-in for 200-300 people, what would be more profitable in your opinion?

Keep playing those same games whether sng, mtt, or ring games and keep building that bankroll to a minimum 50bb preferably 100bb of the type of real money game you want to buy into. That way you’re still playing with enough of a bankroll to last variance

Personally I feel the same as you about Cash games, they are way too easy to lose your money fast, and only ever play cash games in a Live situation, never on-line.
Playing tournaments is one way to increase your bankroll but to be honest the way I look at them is if you have a tournament with 200 players, your odds of winning that game are 200/1 simply because of the number of entrants. For me my selection to increase my bankroll is playing 6-9 player Sit and goes and Bounty hunter games with a reduced number of players your odds of winning are greatly reduced to around 6/1 or 9/1.
It is slow progress but that is one of the reasons I chose to play Poker in the first place, I am a patient man.
Start with 50 cent buy-ins and when you are ready and have built up a bigger bankroll move up to $1 games and so on, for me my first target was $50 Bankroll won in freerolls before buying in to any 50 cent games, working my way up to $100 before increasing to $1 buy-ins.
I now have over $600 Bankroll, but the one question I would ask myself is "What do I want from Poker?"
For me the answer is simple, I just want to play for fun and relaxation without it costing me a small fortune, and now it is a self financing hobby that pays for itself.
You will have times where no matter how you play you will not win any games, having a bankroll can cushion these downswings, and help you to survive until you start winning again.

Good Luck!

Patience is the key.
With such a small roll you should play freerolls until you have a bankroll of about $40 on each account.
Then you can consider playing Cashgames(perhaps with a short or midstack strategy) or 1 table Sit and go tournaments.
For the Cash Games range charts and playing advices for those strategies mentioned the best is the material from pokerstrategy.com.
But be advised those strategies can be swingy.

i would continue with freerolls and build more confidence in your play, then try short money tables and see how that goes. You can always make money at no cost with freerolls.

I really think you should save up your freeroll winnings until you are adequately rolled to play micro sngs or small mtts with overlay.
I concur with this course of action. Save up a little longer until you have enough to play MTTs.

It is most profitable to continue playing freerolls, improve your skills and not waste a single cent. Issues should be resolved as they are received. When your bankroll will be at least 200-300 dollars, then you will start thinking about what to do next.

Hi :)
Bankroll management is very important and directly affects the results and progress of the player. My bankroll management is quite conservative, but it suits me perfectly. I never spend more than 5% of my bankroll in a day. Thanks to this, my funds are safe and my bankroll is growing steadily.

all in in sports betting:devilish::p:LOL:, the ideal is to gather more based on freerolls to achieve a margin and not be pressured playing knowing that you can get to 0 quickly, the important thing is to do everything calmly

Don't make the mistake I made when thinking that, since you won a series of tournaments, it will always be like that, because luck is cyclical, one day you have it, the other you don't.

I've already made a bankroll of over $250, but I hurried through very high buy-in tournaments and broke.

I suggest that you participate in tournaments that don't exceed 1% of your bankroll, because one thing in poker is certain: everyone takes a lot of Bad Beat.

That way, you can maintain your bankroll and even increase it from time to time, winning the prize will cover the losses.

Just keep building your bankroll by playing freerolls. And when you have about $70, start playing cash at NL2 micro-limits. If you learn to understand the game at these limits a little bit, you will quickly beat them and go to play at higher limits.

If you're not interested in cash games, start with the lowest SnG you can find. It has less variance than MTTs and Spin & Go:s.

The sooner you start playing with real money the better, if you don't intend to just keep playing freerolls for the rest of your life.

You can always continue with the freerolls at the same time until you know you are a winning player in real money games.

If you want some kind of safety net and don't feel like grinding up your bankroll from zero with freerolls again: Stop the real money games if you lose a certain amount (you can put it at 10, 20 or 50%) of your bankroll. Whatever you feel comfortable with.

This is true, but only if you have an amount of money set aside for poker, which it makes sense to consider a bankroll. OP has $6, which is not a bankroll, so this does not apply to him.

I think the best thing to do would be to keep playing the freerolls until you can have a slightly bigger bankroll. If not, S&G are a good option.

Keep playing freerolls and try to win a few of them before you lose your hard-earned dollars, which can happen very quickly.

Then when you have won some more money, you also have more experience right away and then you think again.

Much luck

Hi,
There's no guideline to follow for mini bankrolls. Most of the time I loose it in one session

You need to know what kind of poker you are good at and go for it(tourneys/cash/sitngos) . Try to play the lowest limits to allow yourself more than one chance to win and increase/build up your bankroll.

Gl at the tables!

I think you should stick to playing strictly freerolls until at least 100$. And the point here is not in the money, but in learning how to play and in practicing.
