Default Re: Help! Input needed on $2-$5 NL cash game buy-in

20 or so player pool from what you said.....

$100-$300 buyin. Higher buyins mean players bust too hard and too fast. With your limited player pool you don't want them to bust too hard or too fast. Think long term, don't listen to these guys who are saying 500-1000 or even more. In a casino that is fine. In the limited poker economy of most home games these higher buyins will break the games. Who ya gonna play with then? My 2/5 game has a $300 max buy in. I play in some others that have no max and they are more sparcely attended than mine and those that do attend them regularly are hardly "fish". Just my 2cents.
