As far as bankroll management goes, if I decide to sit with a 50BB stack, would it be ok to jump up to the next highest game?

hm, bankroll management discussion is tricky. here are my thoughts, but I'll give fair warning that this is just an inkling and has not been mathematically verified.

Playing a 50bb stack size will have more variance in terms of comparing exact dollar amounts, because you are essentially playing "big pots" very often with a 50bb stack. However, playing a 50bb stack relative to the blind level will have less variance.

For example, say you have $100. If you play the $100 as a 50bb stack in a $1-$2 game, your variance will be higher than if you play the $100 as a 200bb stack in a $.25-$.50 game. However, playing a $100 stack in a $1-$2 game will still be lower variance than playing a larger stack in a $1-$2 game.
