If you are a winning player (which is a lot more likely than anyone - especially a losing player - is willing to admit)...then 100xbuyin should allow you to avoid going broke pretty much ever.

The thing is, if you are a good to very good player at the $11s then you'll need much less...but, we have no way of telling you how good you are. And knowing how good you are is necessary to answer your question.

If you play $11s on an $80 bankroll..I think statistically even the very best player ever would go broke a decent amount of the time. If you play the $6s and are still underfunded at $80, you probably should check out a $5.50 buyin, which Party Poker & Skins doesn't offer.

After my first couple of tries at PP, I put $110 into Pokerroom.com and never looked back. I played the 5+.50s, 1 table at a time. I'd recommend either Pokerroom.com or a site with a similar SNG structure.

More importantly, I'd recommend taking some time to read this forum before you make another deposit anywhere.
