You normally need at least 20 buy-ins if you plan on playing a certain limit (this applies to NL). Some even recommend as much as 50 to 100 if you plan on making money from poker (turning pro at the at max 100 would thus require at least 2000, but more realisticaly 3000 to 5000$). 10 buy-ins swing do happen and what will you do then ?
You can play 100 max with 1k behind, but if you plan on multitabling, you'll risk 30-50% of your BR at any given time. Ridiculous.
