I'd like to see someone talking about getting the majority or most of your bankroll on the table at a time. aokrongly talks about this, I'm generally around 50% of my BR (essentially a sethunting strategy)

If you've got 600, there's a big difference between opening up 5 100NL tables and 10 50NL tables. Big difference
I second this as a topic to discuss. You may have 25 buyins but it's different if you have 10 tables open at once. How does that affect the number of buyins you should have?
If your StdDev/100 hands stays constant, your StdDev/hr will increase as the square root of the number of tables you have open.
so if you are playing on 9 tables it will increase by a factor of 3.
Your winrate per hour will increase by a factor of the number of tables you have open so, by a factor of 9.
Thus for the same risk of ruin, your banroll must increase by
sigma^2/2u
=3^2/2(9)
= 1/2

i.e. you would need 1.5 times the bankroll required for 1 table if you wanted to play 9.

If your bankroll for 1 table was 20 buy ins, you would need 30 for 9 tables.
Thus you could theoretically be playing with almost 30% of your bankroll in play at once.
