NL Bankroll/Recomended Site

SpacePirate · #1 09-03-2004, 02:59 AM

I am currently looking to get into no limit. I am familiar with the 300bb rule when it comes to limit but have never heard one for NL, how many max buy-ins would you recomend I keep as a bankroll?

The other thing is that I am currently playing on Prima, is this the best site to be building up my NL bankroll since they offer a wide range of limits?

Thank you in advance.

15 buys is a good roll to start with. Party is a great place to build a roll up, the 6 max games are soft.

The full ring games are also very soft if that's what you want. Just not as soft as the 6 max.

20 Max buyins is probably the bare minimum, and that assumes you play the same way when you're down to your last 5 buyins as you did in the beginning (i.e. not afraid to push those chips when the situation warrants it). If you are just starting out, it would be better to have 40 buyins so if you drop 5 or 6 in your first session, you don't feel any pressure. In my last two sessions I lost 5 buyins, and made 3.5 buyins, respectively. 6-handed you should have even more - the game is faster and looser.
