My new Cashout Concept

[SirFWALGMan]

I think the 300BB rule is plenty. So 600 for 1/2 NL is fine. Maybe 900 for short. I dunno. I also only think you need to buying for 100 in a 1/2 NL limit game. Why bother with 200+? I usually buyin for 2/4 with 150. I do not think this is too little. Hell, 250 for 5/10 is a good guideline too. It gives you enough to recover from the suckouts, and have a decent roll to play with.

As far as checking out. I tend to enjoy tilting. So this time around I want to take some money out as I hit goals. Like take 100 out when I hit 1K, another 200 when I hit 1500.. However, I have a goal of getting my online bankroll to 3K or more and playing alot more 5/10 short. Once I get there I can asses my options and hopefully take out money regularly. I might want to give 10/20 a try too.. who knows.. But for now my goal is 3K and 5/10, with some small cashouts on the way up.

Sir:
Have you taken too long of a break from poker or something? There's NO WAY 300BB is "plenty" for a NL game. That's 3 buyins, which means no breathing room. And we've gone over the whole "buy in for the max" thing too many times already, but if you're a good player who is confident in your ability to win, why would you buy in for less than the max? This, of course, is assuming you have an adequate bankroll.

No way is that plenty, the BB rule doesnt even really apply to NL, that guideline is for Limit.

I think for $1/2 Short, $25000 is a good solid amount to have. Some people say up to $4000. $600 is Definetely not enought though.

Sorry, I meant Limit. I have been playing limit lately. Sorry for the mis-type. I keep forgetting I like limit again.
