How many Buyins is your HU SNG bankroll?

Does anyone increase the number of buyins for every level they move up? Not a huge jump but at least a few buyins to pad the expected skill increase. Or is this type of thing already considered in the math?

There are 2 reasons why people with very aggressive bankroll-strategies have higher buy-in requirements the higher they play:

1) On higher levels the money starts becoming more important to them, and they realize they would play scared with few buy-ins.

2) The higher they play, the lower their winrate is and the more buy-ins are recommended by the Kelly criterion.

If you play with the number of buy-ins the Kelly criterion tells you to, you won´t go busto even if Kelly recommends 7 buy-ins at some stages.

If you take money out of the bankroll, then you get a risk of ruin when using the Kelly criterion.
