Always play with the maximum Buy-in for maximum value. And fill up automatic if you are under the buy-in.
But if you play in that way you should choose the right NL for your BR.

I like to buy in for the max and play two or three tables at a time. I don’t mind if that represents half or more of my bankroll. But if you’re playing for the long term that’s not a good bankroll management strategy. Actually it’s not a strategy at all. It’s just me. :):)

Depends on the mood. I don't play by any rules. I have my own version of the development of the financial component. I don't even use the word bankroll.

I have read the comments here.

If you are playing poker to make money, you need to use a strategy. If you are a gambler or an amateur who plays for fun or a degen, you will not care about the term "bankroll management" and probably also not care about the word "strategy".

Most poker players are losers in the long term. Check what the losers do, and check what the winners do. Then decide where YOUR priorities lie.

Nothing, because I don't play the cash games. I'm play only the tournaments.

Do you mean when one goes to the casino how much cash (in terms of buy-ins) do we take?

I buyin for the max, this way I can start right playing hands. I think if you buyin for min you'll need to play tighter, which I don't like doing that too much. Max buyin is the best way I believe, and if I lose some I'll fill up to max again. Playing NL you'll need to do that , to see and play more hands then if you play min. Playing min is to hard to maximize hands, I will always play max to win or lose most money. I have gambled for years losing doesn't bother me, but winning is way better and you feel better as well.

I choose the specific blinds that I can spend, when I enter, I put the maximum value of the table, as this is already foreseen in my cost in case I lose, let's say I choose a 1/2 dollar table, I know I will have to have some 80 dollars available and I only enter if this amount will not be missed, otherwise it is an error of the player without control.

I used to do min buy-in and got crushed. Need to do max buy-in to have a chance and not get run over.

I have horrible luck in cash games. so I tend to take the min when I occasionally want to give it a try.

The disadvantage of playing for cash is only one, and even that is relative: you will not be able to immediately win a large amount. Cash is not a lottery. Tangible profit here will be only at a distance. But, at the same time, the variance in this format is less than in tournaments. I play with $30 on my balance.

I would bring a maximum of 50 euros to a live cash game and when it comes to online I always take the minimum at the table. I also don't think that there is more money for better luck, it's about how you play in order to leave the table with more money at the end of a session than you had before.

Hahaha, the truth is that since I am a fearful person, I take as little as possible and I intend to win as much as I can in tournaments with less entry than I would like to play, in the end I end up betting more than I want to enter several MTT, I don't win what I wanted to win and I end up with my bankroll with less money. The story of my life hahahaha. Greetings
