Are these books for low stakes cash game bankroll building strategies?

5% of max bankrol for cash games 2-3% MTT

Depends on if you're a pro or rec player. Let's assume a rec player. Then having 25 buy-ins is good for cash. So if you play 0.5$/$1 and typically buy in for 100BB, then $2500. Variance can be brutal.

Going to check out success equation this is the first time I’ve seen it mentioned.

I am asking for books on the subject. Did you read the post, or were you just posting to keep your post count up? Anyways not talking smack. Just making an observation and keeping my quality count up too.

Yes, but what are good books that cover this topic? Have you read any good poker bankroll management books? What books did you read? I know the basics. I am looking for in depth studies. I am at the point where I am looking at making poker a second job supplemental income type of thing. I want to study about this subject in depth.

I'm not really sure what more there is to study "in depth". It's not that complex of a subject.

I advise you to read the book: Pavel Nazarevich "A Handbook on Building a Bankroll."

What about swings? What about moving up in stakes? What about trying a tournament? What about a savings from winnings? There is much more to be learned and studied about poker bankroll management than just how much to have at a certain stake game.

I agree that Success Equation by Mobusin is good. I will have to check out that handbook one.

I was writting to count my post yes,but IMO thats enough for bankrollmanagement,i guess its a wasting time reading book on BM,and its short pst but its big info IMO,sorry for disrespect if it was something like that ..

I didn't know that books, thanks guys

No need for sorry my friend. I was just making an observation, so I thought I would keep my count up with a well thought reply. Same thing I am doing right now. I finally deposited $25 on Ignition and they gave me an instant $20 bonus. No points required to activate it. It was just there in my bankroll as soon a as I deposited the bonus I claimed was in my roll so I was able to play a few $3.00 triple ups. That has my $25 deposit totally at $52.40 right now.

Well I found this. It's a tiny read that delves into the subject of bankroll management. It does not go too deep, but it does cover more than just the basics. I found it to be worth reading, so I though I would pass it along to everyone who reads this thread hoping to find some sort of info on managing a poker bankroll. I am sure a lot of you have seen it already, but if not give it a read.

Good evening,


What do you advise on good bankroll management?
If someone has some important information, I would like to learn.
