bankroll question
 

I play mainly MTT but because of time-lack (unfortunately i'm not yet able to live from my poker-income) i plan to play more STT in the next time.

My question regards the bankroll asessments therefore. I'm used to have a bankroll of about 60-100xBuyIn for the MTT. I read the FAQ for STT and there its

However, it is preferable to only move up once you have 100 buyins at a given level so if you DO happen to go on a bad run, you won't have to move down to recover.

As you must me much more often ITM at STT i don't understand this high quotage.

How do you guys handle this - do you play with 100xBuyIn or less (or even more)?

Thank you for replies.

Re: bankroll question
 

I play 27s with almost 200 buyins and only recently moved up, but I don't think that is even close to standard. IMO 75-100 is the very minimum you should have, especially if you can't easy replenish your roll if you go busto.

Re: bankroll question
 

You can get by with 50 buyins or even less so long as you move up and down aggressively

Re: bankroll question
 

I play w/ about 200 minimum usually. 100 should be fine.

thank you for your replies - think i'll start out with 6$ buy-ins as my bankroll is about 750

i agree with this, and i think it's the fastest way to grow your roll

that said, absolutely definitely do not cash out if you do this until you get up to over 100 buyins

what do you mean with moving aggressively?

Re: bankroll question
 

i play 22$ with about 25 buy-ins (as i have cashed out already). I don't see a problem at all when you play concentrated and focussed your ROI should be high enough to compensate two or three non ITM games.

Re: bankroll question
 

2 or 3 non itm games? Thats happens every time i load up a set. 25bi might be ok if your single tabling recreationally but yeesh
