Typically 50-100 BB buy ins. That being the high end. I'd say to be successful at least 20k(low end) but with a few bad sessions you could already be down 25% of your roll.

what does this mean? 50-100 BB is a whole different story than 50 - 100 buy-in

100 BB is only $1,000

To answer the question it all depends on your skill man. Please dont expect to beat a $5 - $10 like you might a $2 - $5 (and please tell me you are at least able to bet 2-5 before even thinking about 5-10)

So if you can honestly beat a 2-5 game you need 30 BUY INS

$1,000 * 30 = $30,000

But if your gonna play as a full time pro I would suggest at least a $40,000 bankroll to start if you want to make sure you dont go bust.

But again this is all assuming you can beat 2-5.

Good luck

50 big blind buy ins is 50k. Either way you spelled it out better.
