How much bankroll do you actually need to start playing poker seriously?

[Bawse]

I think players should consider what stakes they need to play to reliably cover their expenses if they’re trying to play poker full-time.

What do you think?

Starting bankroll is not just about covering expenses, is about surviving the swings. I have entered with small funds before, thinking skill would work for me but variance humbled me very quickly. Proper cushion gives you time to learn without pressure otherwise you’re just one bad run away from stopping.
