Limit Poker Bankroll Calculator

Poker Bankroll Calculator. This poker bankroll calculator allows you to work out which limits you should be playing at in poker depending on how much money you have in your bankroll. This calculator is based around the rules of basic no limit Texas Holdem bankroll management, which are: You should have at least 20 times the buy in for cash games.

Then I checked probably the most popular video poker game: Double Double Bonus Poker. With a 9-6 pay table, it’s a 98.98 percent return, $12.75 average loss in two hours on a quarter machine, with a $300 bankroll for a 5 percent risk of ruin and a 35.46 percent chance of a winning session.
Poker Bankroll Management is key for players who wish to ride out the natural variance of poker without going broke. Our poker bankroll calculator widget takes your current bankroll levels and advises the buy-in levels you should consider to maximize your chances of remaining solvent at the tables! Bankroll Management is so important that many of our articles cover this for various games.

You’ll need to know your win rate (big bets per hour or per hundred hands is the standard way to measure this) and your standard deviation over the same period which if you’re a poker tracker user can be found in your ring game statistics under the “More detail…” button on the “Session Notes” tab.

It should be noted that the more hands you have in your poker tracker database the more accurate this calculator will be. Personally I wouldn’t recommend bothering with anything less than 10,000 hands and many would argue that even this many is no where near enough (and technically they’d be right, so just nod your head and walk away slowly as believe me you don’t want to be on the receiving end of a lecture on statistics from a math geek ).

If you are interested though there’s a good thread over on 2+2 that covers the topic quite well.

At the end of the day, even if you’re not interested in the math behind it it’s nice to get a feel for what is statistically a correct bankroll to be playing with. While playing within your bankroll is no guarantee of success (tomorrow your playing style may change sending the current numbers out the window) nor should it ever even enter your thoughts once you’ve bought in and sat down at the table (if your bankroll is in your mind at the table it’s affecting your play and that’s a bad thing) it’s still nice to know that, all things being equal, we can determine if we’re playing within our means.

Good luck at the tables!
