Making a IRL roll
in Online Poker
Hello,
I have been playing online poker for several months now, and built a nice roll for the .25/.5 NL tables (more than 20 max buyins).
Now I have 3 options.
1: continue playing and just withdraw my profit and spend it on junk
2: Continue to build it up and prepare to move to .5/1 tables or
3: withdraw my profit, and start making a IRL poker bank roll.
I don't really need the money to buy junk, so that one's pretty much out. 2 and 3 are really what I'm thinking about...
You see I want to make a irl roll so I can start playing in B&Ms, but I don't want to put my pay cheque towards making the roll. I have never played in a Casino, or even a real home game, so I don't know how much I'd need to cover the limits and such. I like 20-30 buyins for NL (comfortable). Where can I even play NL in BC? What are the lowest blinds/limits at these places?
The other concern I have, is the rake in the B&Ms... I heard that playing in Casinos is only really profitable in the higher stakes, because the rake isn't as big a deal there...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Guts

Lol! I forgot something very important. I multi table, which's why I like 20-30 max buyins for some fluctuations...
I guess I wouldn't need this for B&Ms, eh? So how many buyins do you guys recommend for IRL NL??
lol 20-30 for 1 table... good stuff
