wow.

According to that, you need a bankroll of:

- 550 BB to have a 25% risk of ruin
- 1200 BB to have a 5% risk of ruin
- 1850 BB to have a 1% risk of ruin

insane.

(to put it in perspective, I believe pros should have no more than a 1% risk of ruin, and your average player should have no more than a 5% risk of ruin... for your average player, the 5% figure is usually around 300 BB, e.g. for me it's 250 BB)

Just to note, your winrate is really impressive if the stakes are anywhere near $100/$200 (as $205 seems to be the average big bet based on those numbers). Nice job. =)

Since some things about poker just "clicked" in June, I've run 1.77BB/100 the last 202k hands (just checked).

202k hands * 1.77BB/100 * $205 avg BB = "I'm rich biotch!"
