Bankroll Suggestions
One of the biggest problems with poor sit and go or tournament success is playing buy-ins that are too high for your bankroll. A general rule of thumb is to have a bankroll of about 20 to 30 times the tournament or sit and go buy in amount.
| Buy-in + Typical Fee | Bankroll Requirements |
| $10 + $1 | $220 - $330 |
| $20 + $2 | $440 - $660 |
| $30 + $3 | $660 - $990 |
| $50 + $5 | $1100 - $1650 |
| $100 + $9 | $2180 - $3270 |
| $200 + $15 | $4300 - $6450 |
These are just suggestions. If you are more experienced the range will be a little lower, but it's always good to have about 20 times the buy-in amount because you never know when you may go on a cold streak.
