How Much Money Should I Bring

A casino near me has a $2/$4 limit holdem game, how much money ought I to bring?

$200-$400 dollars.

a single table stake buyin would be around 20BB so minimum $80, i'd take around $80-160.

If i manage to drop 30BB then its a stopping point for me. Someone obviously has a good read on me, or i'm on tilt. 30BB is too much to try and climb back from in a limit game.


there is an article by annie duke about the 30BB rule..

PP default buy-in for 2/4 is $100. I always bring $200 to the table. Although, only once have I lost more than $200 at a table and that was a 283 hand session.

I haven't played 2/4 on pp yet, didn't know what the stakes there were.
