Risk of ruin

With a $5K bankroll, winrate of 3BB/100 hands and SD of 80BB/100 hands, What's my ROR playing $1/2?

What if my winrate is 0.5BB/100?

One springs to mind. Playing 50/100 NL HU with my whole bankroll and doubling up was pretty vital in my continued presence in the world of poker.

Re: 5/10, I never seem to have a great line when I turn a lock

I like ckraising this. He's gonna bet with just about anything behind (protecting made hand, betting draw or bluffing scary board). You can then decide to either take it away on the turn or draw him...

Ckraised on river

Re: No pot control in this one

Re: I just tilted away half my bankroll in 5 minutes, laugh at me
