Re: Bankroll requiremts for different limits
300 big bets seems to be the industry standard these days. So, $6000 or $3000.

Re: Bankroll requiremts for different limits
I think sklansky wrote an article about split pot games where he went over the bankroll requirement and it was very much less than, say, holdem. Like 100 big bets or so and he used stud8 as an example.
Not sure about the above but sure he claimed a good/great player would win 90%+ of his sessions since basically you're freerolling for your profit and breaking even on the rest. |

In any case I agree with the idea that you will need less of a bankroll to play split pot games than you would to play limit hold 'em. Probably you'd need 300 to play straight stud high though. |

Re: Bankroll requiremts for different limits
im pretty sure he was talking about no qualifier (which seems to have made a comeback in the big game), at least if he said you could win 90%. you do probablly need less but i would still want 200 bets or so. of course if you are not playing for a living and can replenish your bankroll and going broke is no disaster then 100 is prob plenty.

Re: Bankroll requiremts for different limits
What are the mechanisms that make split poker contain less variance ?? (Assuming you are not a losing player of course)

Re: Bankroll requiremts for different limits
If you play well, you will get at least half of many pots you participate in...sometimes you will back into half a pot, etc. You won't get middled that often bc you don't put yourself in those spots. Also, winning requires v. tight play which reduces variance.

Beginners luck
Inspired by this thread I quickly skimmed Todd's chapter in SSII ... and sat down at the 1/2$ tables ... after an hour of play I'm up 110$
This is mad ... crazy ... never tryed anything like it before ... Is Stud/8 always like this ?? (Shaking my head in disbelief) |
