Default Bankroll Questions

how does the Sit and Go aspect of this look as far as being conservative. I have played a lot of online Poker but I tend to play above my limits, so I devised this schedual. I would like to think of myself as a good player. (600ish posts here...)

Are these bankroll requirements too high? too low?

that looks good. these limits will protect your BR from downswings pretty well.

Pretty reasonable if you ask me... which you kinda did [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Not sure why they want you to have such a much larger bankroll for two tables than one, the only difference in the two is your ROI will go down slightly, but if it goes down to that extent you shouldn't play two games anyway.

Anyway, stick to those requirements, they will not only keep you from busting out, they will provide targets to keep you interested.

i think he meant like the 20 man sngs when he was talking 2 table. those are my favorite [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. gives me enough time to be aggressive shorthanded.

Default It is good to hear that they sound good

Is 50$ enough to start playing $5+.50?

Not if you are going to have your head blown off if you lose it, but it's enough to have a decent shot at getting going on the assumption that you would be willing to rebuy one day if it went wrong.

I think your risk of ruin would be fairly high. 9 buyins in pretty short even for a good player vs really bad players.

Frankly, I think those bankroll limits are awfully conservative. I two table $30's and have absolutely no worries with anything above $450 or so.

Sorry to break the news Bigwig but if u dont worry to lose $450 when u play $30 SNGs that means one of two things,

1. You have not played enough tournaments to experiance a real downswing or,
2. You can easily replace $450 if you lose them.

In case you mean nr 2, then I buy your post.
