Bankroll for Next Limits

Because of your tips I was able to build up $70 by playing in the internet Absolute poker. It’s not something really huge but I believe it’s already an achievement thinking that I’ve started with nothing. Thanks a lot!

As of the moment, I believe I have already won several tourneys. Also, I have already tried NL $0.10 and luckily have also won. I’m thinking to move up to the next limit but I know I need a strong bankroll to do it. I’m interested of trying soon NL$0.25, NL$0.50, NL$1, NL$2, and NL$4. How much do you think I should prepare for each limit?

Thank you!

Michael,

The answer really depends on how large the swings are you are willing and able to endure. Some people say you need a bankroll of 100 big blinds, while others say 500. A good middle ground would be somewhere around 300 big blinds.
