In all seriousness though this is all dependent on your roi, standard deviation, and what kind of risk you want to take. A good player can play with far less than a bad player can simply because the swings that would be long losing streaks for some would be breakeven for them. Also it depends what your goals are. Obviously a pro player isn't playing $2 buy-ins, but if you just wanna have fun you can play $2 tourneys on a $2 bankroll. If you want to build a roll you should have more buy-ins while if you would die if you lost your poker money obviously even more. Sorry but when I see a fixed number of buy-ins as a fixed rule for all brm it just ignores so many important details so I tend to make sarcastic posts like my last one.

1. 2%
2. 1$
3. 2
4. Less than 100$

LOL i think this is waaaay more than he bargained for.

I think like zach said it all depends upon the player but also not everyone is just going to play tournaments. some people prefer cash games so there should have been a question about that. Anyways answer below.
1.) 2%
2.) 1$
3.) they dont have good bankroll management.
4.) if you drop below 100$

Comfort Zone

All the same question.
