If a player is playing full time poker and they are using a poker variance calculator to guide them in moving up stakes, and how many buy ins to use for each stake, what should they use as their risk of ruin %?
Moving up and down stakes according to the bankroll.
Risk of Ruin Bankroll Required, 10 BB winrate was used with a 170 standard deviation for 6max plo.
50% 1,001.60
25% 2,003.20
10% 3,327.24
5% 4,328.83
2% 5,652.87
1% 6,654.47
0.5% 7,656.07
0.1% 9,981.71
0.01% 13,308.94
5% we need 43 buy ins and 1% 67 buy ins and 130 buy ins for 0.01%
0.01% seems too conservative but than again should it be the % used if you cant afford to go broke or is it too conservative?
Living expenses are separate so this question only applies to bankroll which is the players only income, and lets say it was a bot playing so tilting due to swings is no issue, basically bot plays.
