Re: How Many Chips Do I Need?

yeah, you don't want the fish to stop playing by limiting how many times they can reload chips.

a better way to do it is to limit when/how much they can rebuy.... usually you can rebuy anytime up to a maximum total it would bring your chips to, roughly around 20% more than the initial rebuy. for example, at the MGM, you buy in for $200, play a few hands, and are now at $130. you can buy another $100 in chips to bring it up to $230 as they will let you top up to a max of $239. it's not always advantageous to play short-stacked...
