    15+1 9 man SnGs up to 25+2 9 man SnGs seem ok. 20-180s are good at this point as well....

    ya depending how confident you are in your game is what matters. I would probably be playing $24s and under with that roll, but I play with a super aggressive BR strategy. The biggest thing is adjusting your buyins as your roll decreases. I would make a chart with the range of tournaments you're going to play based on your roll. If you want to be certain of never going broke play it safe, maybe $16s and under at that roll, But drop down to $11s if your roll gets under $700, and jump to the $26s if you roll gets over $1500. Make a plan that you feel comfortable with but use someone's BR management as a guideline. I think FOXs is the best one to go off of, I'm sure someone will post a link for ya. Those buy ins posted above are reffering to 18-45 man SNGs. the more people the higher the variance I believe. With MTTs they recomend 100 buy ins to play it safe, I've heard 200 buy ins recomended as well.

    Someone should just sticky the post below so we can avoid all these repetitive BR management/what level can I play posts. This is the best advice I have seen on BR management. If you follow it, you should have no issues.
