I know teh standard BR req for full-tables is 300BB. What is it for 5 or 6-max tables?

Ok - I'll be (or at least try to be) patient then.

Depends on your winrate and standard deviation.
If your standard deviation is higher your BR requirements are higher.
|
|
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

I have been horrible at keeping track of my winrate. My sample size right now is a whopping 565 hands
I am up about 43 BB in that span giving me a whopping 7.6 BB per 100 so no, I am not expecting that to last.
At this point I now have about 500 BB for 3/6 so I will just keep on trucking there and might consider moving back up to 5/10 again when I get to $4k.

You don't keep track of your winrate? You don't have PT?
Why is your sample only 565 hands?
Why are you considering moving up, given the two previous statements?

No I don't have PT. I have been concentrating on MTTs more than limit lately and before that I was just recording how much I was making but not how many hands I was playing. I am keeping better records now (which is why my sample is so small - that's all I have recorded).
I was considering moving back up because I have played lots and lots of 5/10 limit and did fine, but I also did this when I wasn't bankrolled for it, and am now trying to actually practice a decency of bankroll management so that when I top $3k (for what will now be my 4th time) I will never, ever look back again.

I know, I know - I keep saying I will and then don't. A big reason why is that I play a lot on Dise and my handhistories get sent to Hotmail which PokerTracker can't read or upload or whatever it is PT does.
