Чи варто грати тайтові з обмеженим банкроллом?
I didn't quite understand your question.
Are you asking what game strategy you should use if you have a small bankroll?
Or, are you asking what your bankroll management system should be?

No, your bankroll is not related with your game style. It just limit the buy ins you must play.

Without a doubt, yes, and adjust to the amounts that are most appropriate to your bankroll.

Depent on your bankroll you play to the right amound tournaments or cash according to your strategy! After that you play every hand with passion without thinking your bankroll!

You should implement your strategy regardless of the buy-in. Proper bankroll management should be used so you're not affected losing the cash or MTT buy-in.

you should just switch to fewer limits and play so that you don't think if you lose, it would hurt. The main thing is to play calmly and not think about losing money in poker, because if you constantly think about it, you will lose more because of your anxiety playing tighter is also a strategy is normal

You have to understand that if you play against a bigger bankroll, it means you have no room for mistake.

You should play the same with any bankroll. What you will need to adjust is the buy in level. Always try to play at a limit where your bankroll has a minimum of 20 buy ins.

In my opinion, you should not change your way of playing according to your bankroll, regardless of whether you have 10 or 100 dollars, the way of playing should be the same so as not to interfere with your game.

The right answer is it depends. Are you playing tournaments or cash? Cash of course you need to play tighter, there are several small chip stack strategies you can follow. In a tournament you should play how how you play best. Sometimes that's tight sometimes that's lose. Overall though as others have said, you should lower your stakes if your bankroll is tight. If you are afraid of losing every single hand you are going to lose more often then not

It is not a good idea to adjust your play in accordance with your bankroll. It would probably be a better idea to play freerolls until you get a decent bankroll.
