Bankroll for Sngs
 

Was reading on the other boards an argument on if a bankroll in limit of 300BB is enough.

How much do you think your bank roll should be compare to the price to enter the sngs?

most people think 30 buy ins is enough.

Generally 30-50 buyins.

You should have a big enough bankroll that fits your psychological needs and ability to replenish it.

There is no one "right" answer.

I like to move up once I reach 30 for the next level, move back down a level if I hit 20 for the current level. Never having less than 20 buy-ins for the given level I'm playing means never facing a must-win situation, which is a good feeling for me.

I think that like every other player, I take the occassional stab at higher levels when things seem to be going well, but in general 20-50 buy-ins seems to work fine.

Edit: I don't know how low or high of buy-ins you're playing, but this might be useful to you or others... The one exception I'd make is moving up from the 5+1s to the 10+1s. I started at the 5+1s like a lot of people do with a small deposit, but generally you should get out of these ASAP. Over the laung haul the 20% rake will hurt you there and if you're beating them consistently, you can move up to the next level anyway. Matter of fact, from what I have seen, there does not seem to be much difference in level of play between the $6, $11, and $22 levels, though I'd recommend going ahead and building your bankroll appropriately before moving to the $22 (if you have a small one like me).
