I have 215$ by playing heads up regular for 6 months. But, now I am intrigued by spin and go format. So, I want to give it a try but I want to know that how to decide number of buy ins to play.

I can 2 tabling this game and i already played 500 games of 50 cents spin and go but now they changed the buy ins (25 cents and 1$) and remove 50 cents spin and go. My win rate is 34.87%

So, i want to know that which buyin level i have to play. 25 cents and 1 dollars.

I think you should continue to play HUSNGs until you have a larger roll.

The rake at those spins buyin levels will be too high for you to have a great chance of winning money long term, even at $1 I believe.

HUSNG reg speeds, even with say 10% rake, have a lot more per game potential edge in them (in a lot of ways 10% rake on those is underraked, while 8% in micro spins is overraked). Keep using them to build a nice roll, to where you can access higher level spins with a better shot at succeeding (due to lower rake).

unless I am mistaken, your ITM is too low to be making money. Even if the rake was only 5% you would need about 35%, so don't play them till your ITM is much higher.
Stick to HUSNG has ChicagoRy said. GL

Yes your itm is not profitable, only a 500 game sample, but sticking with Husng for now sounds optimal

You will need an infinite bankroll if you have a negative win rate. If you're going to be studying and improving as you go you can start with a 150 buy in br, but make sure you spending a good amount of time reviewing your game/videos/coaching so that you increase that winrate which is the most important thing right now for you.

No bankroll would be big enough. At your current ITM you would be losing money
