Default bank roll for pot limit, 2/5 blinds

How much of a bankroll is recommended in order to play pot limit omaha/holdem with blinds of 2 & 5 dollars?

Thanks

OK, what am i misunderstaning...18 - 40x BB is by no means a bankroll, let alone even a buy in for a pot limit game.

It's not that complicated. Standard rule of thumb for any game is having 10 to 20 times what the buy is for that game... so if you are playing 5/10 no limit with a capped buy in of $1000 then $10,000 to $20,000 is a good base.

Assuming that you are a consistant player and can beat the game and the rake, about $5000 should be okay.
