I've posted in the stud forum but noone replied, and reckon that this is the best place to go for help.

I'm looking to get my [censored] together, bankroll and all, and have a ROR of nearly zero. I'm playing $50pl 7 stud at the moment and have logged about 8000 hands and I'm winning so far.

1. Do I need a bigger or smaller bankroll for 7 card stud high compared to holdem?

2. Do I need a bigger or smaller bankroll playing pot limit compared to no limit?

3. Should I make allowances for an aggressive style of poker, with lots of 3rd st raises and continuation bets when I'm not sure where I'm at. What I'm saying is that I need a conservative figure.

Most threads I've read suggest between 20-30 buyins, I'm leaning towards 30 as I can't stand the thought of losing half my bankroll in a bad week. And the fact that I can't move down in limits right now.

Thanks in advance [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

You should never drop 10 buyins in a week.
