For what it's worth, I totally chickened out on my 10 buyin rule once my bankroll crossed $1k.

I started mixing in $100s at around $1200, played primarily $50s with the occasional table-selected $100 up to about $1600 or $1700, then dropped the third table, and started sitting first in both a $100 and a $50 at the same time. So far so good, and I just crossed $2k.

There's not really as much hypocrisy going on here as it sounds like though, since I have attempted to point out every time I've said that 20-30 buyins is too many, that comfort and confidence are far more important than any buyin advancement rule.

My comfort level just happens to be somewhere around the $50-$100 level, since that's the last level I played successfully.
