poker Idea

[BrianSwa]

ok so I think everyone on here knows I'am a losing poker player, if you are new just do a search for me and you will see very easily that I'am big time loser. I guess the biggest reason for this is I have never had the need to bankroll manage or anything, I could always just work a little extra if I wanted to play. This maybe ok for some but looking back on this last year it makes me sick the amount of money I have wasted. Honestly I think I have all the tools to be a winning player but without good bankroll managment skills being ok or even good player can only take you so far.

I have busted out of many bankrolls playing above my skill level and honestly since I have never bankroll managed I really dont know what my skill level is. Well I came up with this idea today and wanted to run it by you. Now before you respond to it please put aside your personal opinion of me and just answer the question of "do you think this is wise idea?". Also the comment of "you suck just quit" does me no good because at this point I dont want to quit something I enjoy.

ok so around the end of next month I will have a $1,000 bankroll, now by standard that is just enough to be bankrolled for .50/1.00 nl and good bankroll for .25/.50 but I dont know If Iam good enough to sit there. I have no way of knowing really how good I'am because of all my bouncing around levels. So here is the idea I had, I just started a new pokertracker database to do this. I want to start from the begining and yes I mean very very begining. I want to take my $1,000 bankroll and sit at .05/.10 NL until I reach a certain money value here is how I figure it.


LEVEL MONEY NEEDED TO WIN TO MOVE UP


.5/.20 +$200
.10/.25 + $400
.25/.50 + $800
.50/1.00 + $1600
1/2 + $3200
2/4 + $6400


as you can see I would have to win 8 buyin at the lower level to move up and if I ever lose that 8 buyin move back down...rinse/dry/repeat. Now if at any time I move up without hitting that mark I would withdraw right away and quit. If I cant stick to bankroll managment I shouldnt be playing anyway right? Thats it really, I think this will be good for me to determine my actul skill level and if and that is a big if I get to those higher levels I will know I belong there and I will have a great bankroll for that level.
