That would be 1000 right for 500 bb? or is it more in no limit

[Smasharoo]

1-2 NL you'd want 2-3 grandish. Assuming you're playing a standard 100BB max buy in online type of game.good luck.

could you please tell me how you got that so i can work it out for all limits like .25 .50, .10 .20, i thought it was just 500bb maybe that is for limit? thanks.

I could explan variance and stadard deviation but I won't.15 Buy ins will ussually get you there in NL.If you lose 15 buy ins a row, something's horribly wrong.It's really pretty tough to lose 10, but 15, or 1500 X the big blind is a good safety net.I wouldn't obsess over it too much, though, given how soft 1-2NL is online these days you could probably scrape by with a lot less without too much risk of going broke.good luck.

do you have a link about varience and standard deviation i would like to learn. i hear people on here blame varience for loseing all the time

[Smasharoo]

http://mathworld.wol...dDeviation.htmlVariance is just another word for luck.When you lose to rivered 2 outers 10 times in a row, that's bad variance. When you flop 9 sets in a row that's good variance.Varying from the expected outcome in one way or another.etc.good variance.

do you play micro limits?

[Smasharoo]

do you play micro limits?Um, sometimes. I'm a little fuzzy as to the driving point of your question tho

[apple11]

is there anyway to protect there flush draw i bet pot on the flop+turn they still come then hit sucks specially when i had aa and kk cracked today by that. Does this get any better at the 1-2 level or do the fish still call when you bet pot twice?

I could explain to you how to crush low limit NL in about 15 words.I'm not going to though.good luck.

[No_Neck]

you did what you could to protect your hand they made a mistake by calling. You should go to the texas holdem (if that is your game) and post hands.Just take the hand history http://www.zerodivide.cx/converter/ use the bet the pot format. Make sure to include reads and any other information that you have. Helped me a lot, but don't get defensive these guys will help you a lot but you have to be open to advice.
