how many bbs should you have at the start of a cash game

[iflylight]

this is a question i dont really know the answer to even thought i have been playing for a while i usually buy in for about 80bbs but i dont know if that is too much or too little. im a pretty loose player and get involved in a lot of hands so should that influence how many bbs i buy in for?

100 big blind`s is the standard buy in for cash games

If you are loose then as big as possible, when you bink you need to get paid to compensate for lower quality of hands.

 

[Marcwantstowin]

You should buy in for 100 Bb's or the maximum for the table you are sitting at. gl...

 

[exidas]

100 BB for sure, but I dont make option to add money after every hand if I lose. It helps better see how you play

 

[TeUnit]

the bigger you think your edge is the more bbs you should typically buyin for

 

[hffjd2000]

If you have a decent BR, you want to cover them all.

100 BB ,but again depends on your playing style and how tight or loose table you are playing in.

 

[JamaicanKid]

100bb

 

[rogerdelpk]

im more of 250 but 100 is the usual...

 

[LinkornU]

Like everybody says at least 100 bb. If you can have more than 100 bb then you should have it. But there are guys who do extremely well with just having 40-50 bb. It depends on you skills and playstyle.

100 BB , because if you've less - many decision's will be hard 4 u in interesting situations

this is complete rubbish . Not reloading doesn't say anything about how well you have played . Say you get a 90bb stack player and get him all in on the turn as a 95% favourite and he hits his one outer on the river doesn't mean that you played the hand badly. but if you then continue to play with 20bb and get AA you are severely crippling your winrate when you win 20 bbs with it instead of 100bb if you had topped to full.

50 BB minimum

50 BB minimum , but I allways took a table maximum when I join the tbale.

 

[veltins]

take the table max...100bb is gd ..

 

[alittlepoker]

I just come on the table and let the site set it for me im not worried about the blinds only when im playing Mtts

I don't play a ton online. I think that buying in short is ok until you figure everything out. When you first sit at a table you have no idea what is going on and what the table dynamic is like. I would say that after a few orbits you should top off. This is what I do live. That doesn't mean it's the best thing to do online though.

The maximum that you can.

Forget about your buy in for a moment. Keep in mind if your a novice or trying to create a cash flow, you dont want to go in half way. BR management should be your 1st thought. So say you want to play the micros at say the .05/.10 level. To play that game and get through a thousand hands yor BR should be 200.00. That gives you 20 max buy ins at that level. You will get a good sample rate and have backing so your not playing scared. Good luck and have fun

 

[DoctorDonLoL]

i was entering with the lowest possible
so now i believe thats totally wrong

 

[MichaelFoerster]

100 bbs is the normal amount for starting any cash game. You should at least arrange 100 before procceed.
