Default Re: Some S+G questions, $200\'s on up and ROI\'s (Pokerstars)

I will make a stab at reinforcing what a couple of posters have already said.

A bankroll of only 10 buyins is not enough for ANY limit of SnGs. Even if you are a winning player you are going to have runs where you place out of the money 12-15+ tournaments in a row. It WILL happen. It isn't a question of IF it happens, just a matter of when.

The normal recommended minimum BR is 25-30 buyins. A number of posters feel that even that really isn't enough to allow for those runs where things just really don't go your way.

All people are trying to tell you is that you have been running good. No one is saying you aren't a winning player. But whether you are a winning player or not, you are going to have runs where you lose quite a bit more than 10 buy ins.

I wish you well and hope you listen to the advice given. With only 10 buy ins you are walking along a cliff edge blind folded.
