Default 3k work ok for 5/10?

I know 3k is kinda skimp for the 5/10 6max, due to the large swings.

For 10max though, would 3k cut it? Ive never played the game, so if anyone who plays it could let me know thatd be great.

Same answer as always: If you are willing to move down if you hit a bad slump, then yes. If you can replenish your bankroll then yes. If no to both, then no. Under some reasonable, but possibly wrong, assumptions (about win rate and variance), your chance of ever going bankrupt if you never reload, never remove any money, never change stakes and start with 300BB, is about 1%.

For me, the 5/10 10max games are not meaningfully different (from 3/6) in terms of variance.
