    how many tables do you play?

    what would you consider your style?

    if you are a TAG and play 1/2 tables then I would say that 30BI is more than fine.  if you are LAG and play 3/4 then you should be looking at 50BI or so.

    you should only be looking at having 100Bi plus if you are doing poker for a living and playing higher stakes so you would need that extra cushion.

    What scotty77 said.

    If you only play 1 or 2 tables i would even say 20 buy ins is fine depending on your style. If you play loose and aggressive then you may need a few more as the swings will be bigger.
