Default New Bankroll Requirements for Speeds?

What kind of rolls are good for each level at the speeds?
50buyins? 100buyins? How many are you comfortable with
while multitabling?

I used to be a sng grinder at the 55s and am deciding on returning
to the grind. I used to 9 table with about 150 buyins.

I usually keep 50 buyins directly in the account and 50 more on neteller, better safe then sorry.

I would feel uncomfortable without a minimum of 100 buyins. I've had a lot of 30x buyin downswings lately at the speeds. I prefer ~150 buyins for 9 tabling.

I have 150 buyins now. I'm not sure if I need it, but it actually feels better/safer when I hit a downswing

Around 100 buyins is also my preferred cushion. Playing only the 22$ I do not have a lot of 30 buyins drops, but somewhere between 10 and 20 is fairly standard

I find that it is much easier psychologically to be slightly overrolled at a given level.

I have more than 200 buyins BR. Doubt I need it, but it feels safe when I have a downswing. Don't ever want to have to worry about the BR.

How many tables you play has no effect on variance.

I'd assume you could swing more buyins simply from the drop in performance that results from increasing the number of tables?

I can't help but to disagree here. If I single table at 20% ROI but can 8 table at 10% my variance and profits will be mucho different

Everyone has the same amount of variance. The higher your ROI the less negative variance you will experience.
