I doubt he ever even looked at the Full Tilt Academy, let alone the bankroll management section. After all, he's Phil gawd damned Ivey. Why would he need to?
 
As for the recommended bankroll for playing a $1 million dollar buyin... if we're talking about poker, the question is irrelevant because bankroll management is for games that you can play in on a regular basis and there simply aren't enough million dollar games for him to be playing in them regularly. So the question instead becomes one with a yes/no answer: "do I have a million dollars lying around that I can afford to lose, yes or no?"
 
Obviously in Ivey's case the answer was yes.
 
If we're talking about playing table games then the question of bankroll management is also a moot one, because no amount of bankroll management will offset the fact that table games are -EV. So once again, the question just becomes "do I have a million dollars lying around that I can afford to lose, yes or no?"
 
But ignoring all those facts, if you just want a simple answer on what kind of bankroll you'd want to be playing in million dollar games regularly, the answer is probably somewhere in the $30-$50 million ballpark.
