    Alright so i read up on bankroll management in the strategy archives...

    Under cash games...for unprotected...it says 15 buy ins is acceptable.

    Does that mean 15 max buy ins....15 standard buy ins...15 min buy ins???

    So i have $275 and that means i can't play .10/.25 by rules of bankroll management? That's a lot of .5/.10 grinding...

    How does that apply when mutitabling? if u have 15 max buy ins then u can run 3 tables?

    This all depends on your bankroll. Is this $275 dollars something you can easily redeposit and not care or is this an amount of money you cannot afford to lose. If you don't care about the 275 and can easily put money back on then you dont have to grind ultra micro stakes.

    with 275 you could play 1 table of 1/2 NL and one table of .50/1 NL no problem.

    ^^ Exactly, I usually have around 2k in my poker accounts, but I frequently play 1-2nl. This isn't my entire "bankroll" though, because I can easily redeposit if necessary, and the 2k won't hurt if I lose it. My actual "bankroll" is prob somewhere around 15k-20k, i just choose to limit the amount of money i have online (partially for security and partially for an ultimate stop-loss).

    You need to consider what you ACTUALLY have in your bankroll (e.g. what you are willing to redeposit, not just what is in your poker accounts) and how much your total bankroll means to you financially.
