Not sure why, but I've found 16x works for me. That's slightly under TP's 20x or 5% recommendation.

I actully dropped below what needed for 25NL so I withdrew from party (waiting on check) and putting into full tilt to play their $10 NL. Didnt want to bust out playing above what im bankrolled for, If/when I get back to $500 probolly move back over to party.

What do you guys figure is the need for a bankroll X times the buyin. Is it for psychology? Weigh against bad luck? Because I find myself playing where I feel like it and my bankroll fluctuates between 500-1000. Maybe thats why I have had a bit of trouble moving up. I have great control at a NL and have had success with all levels consistently (excluding F-ing Doyle's Room).

Basically it is to eliminate (well, actually greatly reduce) your risk of ruin.
It is not a rule, but a guideline. so 16 buy-ins is fine for some and more than adequate for others, but not enough for others still. It all depends on what kind of risk you are comfortable with.

Psychology is definitely a part of it, but more importantly, if ou go sitting down with half your bankroll and lose it on one hand, BAM - you just lost half your bankroll! It can happen, as we all know.
By never sitting down with more than 5% of your bankroll, the most you can lose is, well, 5% of your bankroll... |
