*Gag* A Bankroll Question

[sthief09]

whenever I sit down, I make a point to pick the 3 or 4 tables with the least amount of players. I realized that's why my PFR is so high.

what's the minimum I should have for 3/6? Can I get away with $1500?

I think you can play 3/6 with 1500. If you hit a really bad run, drop down.

Set a stop loss limit. Say for instance, if you hit 1k then immediately drop. But you must stick to it. No more "I'll raise just one more hand"

Probably. I play 3/6 all the time, and I've only got five hundred bucks.

(This is a terrible reply).

Don't worry, a rich girlfriend is a +ev move in the long run.

I think $1500 is plenty for 3/6. I started playing 3/6 with a lot less than that. What would be a good BR for 5/10? if $1500 is the number for 3/6 than that would make it $2500 for 5/10. I'm at about $1800 now and I've been planning to move up when I reach $2000. Does anyone else think that's enough?

You clearly have never had a rich girlfriend. Daddy's money eventually goes away but her expensive taste doesn't.

About the only thing you can rely upon is daddies money will be used to spoil your children but then also be there when you need to pay for their college. I think it is -EV over your lifetime unless you can get her daddie to hire you for a high paying low stress job.
