Just thought this might be interesting to see statistics on.

While the buy-in and what we're playing (cash vs. tourney) varies, we tend to keep it on the cheap side for a couple reasons. First, there are a couple students who attend and this amounts to cheap entertainment for all involved. Our home-game is more a social opportunity than anything else.

Second, if I'm going for money, I'll head down to the casino and beat up on the clueless folk and retirees who frequent there.

That said, I wouldn't mind a higher stakes game....

I usually take a grand to a game even if it's very low stakes. You just never know when a bigger game might break out and I'd like to be prepared.

The games I play in don't get too crazy. I like to bring what I can afford to lose. I usually set aside anywhere from 75-150 to bring with me to the typical .25/.50 game. 100 for poker and 25-50 for beer, food, snacks etc.

Anywhere from 10 to 20 thousand pennies.

$50 - $100 for me. Half for the tourney and half for the cash game afterwards.

In my main home game we play mostly low $10 buy-in cash games with nickle/dime blinds. I never take more than $50 to those games. I play in a couple of other home games that are primarily tournaments, with reasonable buy-ins. To those I usually bring $200. I averaged it out at about $100.

$50-$100. The typical buy-in is $20. I've only spent $60 once but, I like the extra cash just in case I play very stupidly.
