Bankroll requirements
I am currently playing 1/2 on empire (suffering through the hi's and low's of that wonderful site). I'm very close to 1k for my bankroll and I was curious as to how much it is recommended to have to begin playing 2/4. I've dabbled in 2/4 and 3/6 and have done quite well but I want to take things slowly, build up my bankroll. Any ideas?

Re: Bankroll requirements
300BB for a level is fairly standard. Most on this site like to have more though. Use the search function, you'll find plenty of threads on this exact topic.

Re: Bankroll requirements
I think most have more than 300BB due to bonuses.

Re: Bankroll requirements
Thanks, much appreciated. I'm fairly new with the posting so I'll try out the search function. I've heard 300BB, I'm just trying to adjust to the variance (which I must say I haven't gotten used to yet).

Re: Bankroll requirements
I'm currently at 800 and I seem to do better at 3/6 6 max than 1/2 full ring. Perhaps it's because I am so bad. How do you deal with the variance? Perhaps I should understand I'm in this for the long haul.

[/ QUOTE ] 6 max=much more enjoyable for me. mostly because i get to raise a lot. i deal with variance by having an adequate bankroll and sulking when my pokergraph is bad fro the day and then going to sleep. i love dealing with variance in +ev situations. it makes for more fun. rj |
