LHE HU Bankroll?
 

What do you limit guys think is a sufficient bankroll for playing 2/4 lhe?

Re: LHE HU Bankroll?
 

300BB - 500BB is pretty standard. It is mostly personal preference.

Hmmm game is probably unbeatable versus most opponents given typical rake. Just fyi.

[/ QUOTE ] isn't FTP just .50 cents a hand? thats comes to 2.5BB/100flops per player roughly at 5/10. with rakeback, is that too much to overcome?

5/10 is plenty beatable.

I think at Stars its reasonable. They dont rake anything for heads up 2-4 until the pot gets to $20, and there is 50c cap rake until pot gets to over $40.

The games are typically very soft and you get to play mostly full ring players trying to start up new games.

$1,500 would be good.

This is comparable to FR IIRC. Probably less at 5/10.

I wouldn't say it is unbeatable, but I'm sure it is one hell of a ride.

Re: LHE HU Bankroll?
 

The most important factor is whether or not you need to pay yourself. If you have another job that pays your bills and you dont need to cashout ever, then 300-500bb is fine. But if you are a professional and you need to get paid every month you need to keep a much larger surplus, 1000-2000bb in the tank at all times.

Re: LHE HU Bankroll?
 

I would strongly recommend you have $1,500 or more, especially if you're playing online.

(LOL @ the thought of playing 2/4 LHE live)
