Bankroll

There's a ton of advice on bankroll management and how much a player should have for the levels they play. However, its always been an area that I've struggled with. I'm looking to play $50's and would like to ask you how much I should have. I've been playing casually for 5 years and am not a pro. I have a full time job and would like to take HUSNG's more seriously in 2012 to suppliment my income. I'm thinking $1000 - $1350 would be ideal. Thanks for your input.

IMO it depends on what

IMO it depends on what structure you want to play... for hypers, this is a very risk BRM choice..

Aside from the bankroll

Aside from the bankroll requirements what amount of volume should be played at each level before moving up in stakes?I am currently grinding the $15s on Poker Stars. I have a sufficient bankroll to play the 30s but would like some advice on desired volume and ROI before moving to the 30s.Note: I am not in any rush to get to the 30s, I want to have a solid ROI over a long enough sample size to ensure I can beat the 15s before I move up.So What ROI should I aim for, over a sample size of how many, before I move up?Also, how much can I expect my ROI to drop moving from the 30s to the 15s.Thanks

Regulars? Turbo? Hyper-Turbo?

Regulars?Turbo?Hyper-Turbo?In my opinion getting a big enough sample size is a bad argument. If you do after game analysis you should notice if your game is solid or not. If you have the bank roll......move up. If you feel bad on the 30s go down again.

I am playing strictly

I am playing strictly Turbos.Right now I have 250 games played. ROI of about 10 percent.I feel my ROI should be better. About 100 of the games were played when I was multi tabling (2 tables) in which I would expect my ROI to be only about 5% over those 100 games.  So my ROI for one tabling is slightly higher than the 10% ROI my excel reports.Note: I would only be playing one table at a time to start the 30s.Im playing about 40 games a day. If that counts for anything.All advice is much appreciated.Thanks

In terms of hand review I

In terms of hand review I haven't been doing too much. Obviously learning from my mistakes seeing so much volume everyday but maybe I should scale back about 5 games a day and desginated it to looking over my HEM.
