I wouldn't recommend any "pro" to quit his day job with 1000 big blinds. You need thousands a month just to live, nevermind what you need for the game. Poor bankroll management ahoy!

Not watching, but 1000BB's in LHE is plenty, as long as that is strictly your BR. If it's living expenses AND BR, you are doomed to fail.

And in NL, isn't the rule a minimum of 20 buy-in's for your BR?

I think in no limit bankroll has a lot of "depends", I think the strategy of never risking more than 5% of your bankroll at any time is good minimal bankroll mgmt as its more a function of the buyin than the blinds which seems to be more appropriate

They were talking about NL -- should've specified that. AND I think it included personal expenses.

It's too little, regardless.

As far as buy-ins go, a lot depends on what your life is like.

But if you are counting on poker for 100% (or a vast majority) of your life's money, you need to have a TON saved up before you take that leap. Too many horror stories of people leaving good jobs / viable careers thinking the downswings / variance will never happen.

Oh, 100% agreed. 6 months (minimum) living expenses and then I'd think that 40 buy-in's should be sufficient BR $ as well.
