Spoon? When did you start back to poker again? Where are you now? What has been your BR discipline?

That's my point!
Okay for me personally, I started on a $200 loan at 10nl early last May, and in January I made $12k grinding only full ring. Post-25nl I played on at least 35 buy-ins, and 50 for 200nl. That's not really the point.

An advantage of a deeper BR management that's often overlooked is that the play at different levels is a bit different, so when you move up/down a lot then you have to make more adjustments, which I believe can cause you play with a lower EV.

In all seriousness though, if you're a hobbyist player than 20 buy-ins is probably fine as long as you move up/down when necessary.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
