For this post , i'll come up with different buy ins according to your win rate and the chance that you'll go bust .

Here is the probability you'll go bust with 5 buy ins
as a
a)55 % player .
b)60% player
c) 65% player

The "flaw" here is that players will conclude they have a true winrate of x% long before their sample is large enough to draw such a conclusion (I realize this isn't really a "flaw" in your post; it is an error in how posters may apply it.)

A follow up for you Jay: How many games must a HU SNG plyer have under his/her belt before he can call him/her self a 60% winner.
