Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6928480, member: 397965"] In this example you have a reasonable bankroll for 25NL cash games or $10 tournaments. But you cant play neither of that with just $10 sitting in the cashier. Even with $100 you would be severely limited, since after buying in for 100BB to 4 cash tables, you would have no money left to top up or rebuy, if you lose some pots. Or if you play 10 tournaments without cashing, you would already be out of funds. And while you can move money around, its not like, this is an instant process. Typically it takes at least 1-2 days to withdraw, and only then is the money available to deposit on another site. There might also be costs involved. For instance when I withdraw from PokerStars, they dont give me the same exchange range between USD and SEK, as when I deposit. So if I constantly moved funds in and out of my PokerStars account, I would be bleeding money over time. Finally in some countries like Sweden and Germany, there are mandatory deposit limits. In Sweden its 5.000 SEK or around $470 per week with the current exchange rate. So if you are a highroller and wants to play the coming SCOOP series on PokerStars, this will not be possible, if you live in Sweden, unless you left some funds on the site from the last time, you played there. So while I do agree, that a poker bankroll is all the money, you have available for poker, and not the balance on a certain site, in reality you do need to have a reasonable amount of money sitting on any site, where you want to play regularly. And if you want to play on many sites, if practice you will need a bigger bankroll, than if you only play on 1-2 sites, since you dont want to constantly be visiting the cashier to withdraw or deposit.
