I think it depends on the style of your play and how good you are

For a living, 150 would be absolutely safe. Otherwise you don't really need that many. I operate at about 75 buyins, when I get to that point at a certain limit I usually take shots at the next higher one, and move up exclusively to the higher limit once I reach 75 for it.

Is this a joke ??

You guys have that many buy-ins ??

Haven't you heard that even with 20 buy ins ,you're being on the conservative side . I can't imagine how extremely conservative one is with 150 buy ins .

this is for people doing it for a living where redepositing is not an option.
20 buy-ins is like nothing and 10-15 buy-in swings happen very very frequently

also psychologically, losing large portions of your bankroll is devastating. with 20 buy-ins i don't even feel close to safe, especially when i commonly lose 3-4 in a row

Theres a mathematically correct bankroll and a psychologically correct one, losing 25% of my bankroll is too distressing mentally for me to continue playing well.
