I have 15K and feel like that ain't enough. i'd be happy with 25K.

That's ridiculous - seriously

Meh, I have 30k for the game. I won't step foot into the 20 again until I have 40k.

Wait, ... are you guy's 100% pro, and could not restart if you busted?


Personally, I keep 500 BB's and feel that's plenty. While I know it's possible to go on a 500 BB downswing, I also know that it's extremely unlikely. Further, after a 300BB downswing, I'd probably drop down to 5/10 to rebuild for a bit.

It's my feeling that a 500 BB downswing is not simply bad luck, but also bad play.

Because you don't have 25k.

have a friend hit you repeatedly in the gut with a baseball bat. if you can deal with it, you are ready for the 10.

If the 10 is like having a friend hit you repeatedly in the gut with a baseball bat, then god, how do you describe the 20?

Move 5 inches lower.

That's not my point.



My point is that if someone's dropping 300+ Big bets, there's a problem. He's not playing well. There's no way any of us can dropp 300+ big bets in a row and not be affected confidence-wise, emotional-wise, and psychological-wise.

Whether I have the extra roll or not, I maintain that dropping down at that point would be a good idea ... for reasons I've already mentioned in previous replies.

Moving down and chopping your earn in at least half sucks big time.

If I was earning X $/100 at 20/40, and moved to 10/20, I don't think I'd be earning <1/2x $/100.
