Got some advice on weekend trip bankroll requirements from Jeremy (presumably of Love and Casino War):
“I don’t recommend 160 BB as the minimum for a four-day trip for the simple reason that if you lose over 80 BB, you’re going to be on tilt.”
Tilting is what I do best. Especially after getting an ego-stroking initial upward trajectory (e.g., going from +60BB to – 60BB yesterday). But okay: 4/8, 2 x $4 = 8, $8 x 20 = $160, $160 x 3 = $480. Hmm. Even if I’d wanted to lose 80BB, I wouldn’t be able to. Heh.
I also asked Iggy what he thought about roll requirements in Vegas and he said:
“bring yer roll. all 600 – i would”
Basically all of this wondering about how much money to bring is a big exercise in wasting time: my bankroll’s not big enough for such concerns. The real question is whether I will tilt my meager roll away in the next few days playing on Party?
Another question is, can I get through Pot-Limit and No-Limit Poker and Small Stakes Hold ‘EM in time for the trip?
Vegas!
