Starting bankroll

[bdawg31]

If you are at say a $100 max buy-in NL table - at what point do you reload to top it back off at $100? I usually do when i get to around $80ish or so. I guess maybe in theory i should do it everytime i dip a little off the max buy-in??

personally PokerNovice I do it if I drop to even like $95 or even sooner depending on the table because you want the most money possible on the table incase you hit a monster and put it allin.

At an aggressive table?
After I go through the blinds.
That's how serious I am about this.
The way I see it, if some jackass with a $300 stack wants to double me up, then I should at least have the decency to let him do so when I have $100 in front of me instead of $94.50 ($100x2= $200) - ($94.50x2=$189) = I lose $11.

That's how I look at it.

In theory, this is correct... I'm too lazy to do it though, and it makes my acounting more difficult (I track my winnings every session, of course). I usualyl reload for even numbers that put me close to the original buy in. If it costs me a few bucks from a double up, so be it. It will probably save me those same few bucks from a second best hand just as often...

It's pretty hard to lose with the nuts.

I'd lose al ot of blinds (meaning I'd be reloading constantly) if I sat around waiting to play until I had the nuts.
