Default Re: Bankroll for draw

Hi Bedz!
You are right to assume that. I think 150BB should be perfectly adequate. Really, i think 150BB in draw would be MORE safety net than 300BB in hold'em, since as you mention, theres just 2 rounds, but also, theres significantly less of a luck factor in your short/mid term results. I've been doing this for like 4 months now, and have yet to see a -50BB downswing. Actually, not even a 40BB downswing! And i know i'm far from the best; i make mistakes probably every hour i play, but so long as your fundamentals are decent (and you play low enough stakes that theres noobs at your table), you should be more than OK with 100-150BBs.

There was a fairly recent thread on this (couple months back), that might give you more info if you want to try the search function. I would imagine "bankroll" as the search term should find it.
