I think bankroll management is a utility and psychologically based equation rather than EV. The amount of buyins you would play with from Thailand vs the US should be different values. Generally speaking its similar to an MTT, the value of each dollar you make is worth less than each dollar you lose from a life perspective unless you have some very poker specific goals.

For example Ive almost always played with 250+ buyins for any limit Ive played because for a long time Ive known I didnt want to play poker forever.

lol I mean, obviously when pro's and people like primo tell me I'm being too optimistic, I'll obviously take that as very good advice, but it was a reverse joke. That people who are good starcraft players are good at multi-tabling like nanonoko (but he was a street fighter player, which is even better if you're smart).

cool, just friendly games or are you interested in some friendly bets? not sure how often a 2200 is supposed to beat a 2000 theoretically.

"The expected result is the winning probability, as calculated based on the rating difference between the two players. If the rating difference is 0, each player has the winning probability 0.50. If it is 100, the stronger player has the winning probability 0.64 while the weaker 0.36"



From another site :

If Player A has true strength RA and Player B has true strength RB, the exact formula (using the logistic curve) for the expected score of Player A


Ea = 1/(1+10^((Rb - Ra)/400))

Which would mean a 200 rating point difference produces a a <25% expected result


What's your current rating (you can check out mine at Geoffroy d'Avout d'Averstaedt, I think it's 2004 atm, strongest ever 2100 or something)?


I'm thinking a series of games with slightly better than 2-1 odds for me?

my 5$ to your 12$ or something, or my 3 to your 7 for a fixed series of bullet games, maybe 20 3 0 games?

Skewing numbers like a true hero <3

PS: Joking. 24.23% win expectancy for a 2000 player against a 2200 player.
