Default BR requirement for 1-tabling and multitabling difference

Hi, tell me,please, is there any difference in bankroll requirement for 1-tabling and multitabling?
For example: if i play 1 table for $25 i need 20 buy-ins=$500. And for 4 tables i need $500*4=$2000 ?
or:
1 table and 2,3,4... tables =same amount=$2000?

I think it's the same, because doesn't matter you win or loose on different tables matters only that you play more hands(assume ABC poker,without looking on opponents and making a lot of notes and watching plays when you r out of the hand)

Thanks in advance guys. Couldn't find anwer on this matter.

i dont think there's any difference.. you're just making +/- EV decisions faster.. if your multitabling (depending on how many tables) your decisions will probably be poorer so you'll have a lower winrate and more variance maybe..

If your winrate is the same both 1 tabling and multitabling then it doesn't make a difference how many tables you play.

More variance requires bigger bankroll. If you are a solid 5BB/100+ winner when multitabling, there shouldn't be any need for a bigger bankroll.

Tx guys alot. That's what I thought. I play 6 tables almost always, because I get bored with offered free time on less hands playing. I find +'s in multitabling:
1)in SSNL a lot of players that don't recognize betting patterns
2)I use short-stack(or half-stack) technic to get people calling my +EV and winning hands more often

About variance: i think increase in variance of multitabling is less then decrease of splitting it amongst multiple tables. Example:

I push all-ins with AA-TT preflop on 4 tables. Loosing 1 table, winning 3 tables. So I am in the plus. If I had only one table I would loose full buy-in or winn buy-in. It would be good on good lucky day, but bad on unlucky day, because difference in results would be bigger. I hope most people understand my logic.

Tx guys. Really appreciate it.

Well... variance is calculated pr 100 hands and not pr hour so there is no difference between playing one and 4 tables.

And you should really consider playing full stack.

You will want a slightly bigger cushion to multi-table. If you go even on a mini-tilt you can lose a bunch much faster as well if you hit a bad series of beats all in a row you could lose 3 buy-ins whereas before you might have only lost one and stopped playing for the day. I will second the thought that you should learn to play full stack as that will maximize your winrate once you get good at it.

Tight short stacks are so [censored] annoying.
Thank God there are so few.
