Bankroll for shortstacking?
For NLHE, the rule of thumb is that a player needs ~20 buyins to have a very low chance of going busto (assuming he is a winning player). For PLO, this may be higher, but 20 buyins seems about right.
If one follows Slotbloom's shortstack strategy (~25BB buyin, try to get most of your stack in preflop with a favorite hand), does anyone have a sense of how many minimum buyins are needed to have a low chance of going busto? |

Re: Bankroll of shortstacking?
i did a lot of FR 20BB shortstacking to build my bankroll on party and i used a very conservative 50 buy in BRM. I got that advice from some1 who played SSS on 10/20.
10-15 stacks down is normal as ur constantly getting 60-40s and stuff (or less in multiwaypots) |

(PLO100,200, etc) Did you find it easier to implement SSS at the higher limits where there is more raising preflop? (there is, right?) |

Re: Bankroll of shortstacking?
with bankrollbuilding i ment getting enough to start playin PLO25/20 fullstack so i cant really talk about the levels ur playin.
at plo25 i had like 8PTBB on PLO50 9,5 and then i started PLO100 with 1000$ having a huge downer of 14 stacks, which really sucked because as u said ppl got more aggressive at PLO100, which was good for me but unfortunately they kept sucking out (if u can call losing 60-40 or 65-35 "sucking out", but anyway) so yeah there was more raising, but also ppl know slotboom at these levels so they kinda know what u want them to do. so u wont get raised when u limped in as much and they know that ull check raise a lot. at PLO100 i prefered to sit like 2 or 3 seats left of the maniac so i could reraise him all in after a caller, while sitting right and limping would often cuz the pot to go unraised to the flop. |

Re: Bankroll for shortstacking?
I usually start playing with 40 BB and have had many 1000 - 1500 BB downswings. I play levels PLO400-PLO1000 6max. My ptBB/100 is around 3. VP%IP = 32, PFR =17.

Re: Bankroll for shortstacking?
asking a question about the proper way to shortstack should result in an insta-ban...

Re: Bankroll for shortstacking?
standard deviation for shortstackers is low, but winrate is too, so bankroll requirements turn out to be pretty similar to full-stackers. also, ban.

[/ QUOTE ] According to Slotbloom, winrates can be pretty high if you know what you are doing. Also, not ban as shortstacking is a legit strategy just not one you might like. |
