Bankroll?

What is the going rate for a stud bankroll? Do you guys use the same formula as holdem?

I've always thought it was 300 times the Big Bet, not the big blind.Here is an interesting article by Mike Caro on bankroll requirements:http://www.poker1.com/absolutenm/templates...29&zoneid=3

I am pretty sure you can get away with less than 300BB in Stud8 if you are beating the game for 2BB+/100, because its a split-pot game, which will naturally reduce the variance. However, and I am pulling this totally out of my *** as I have no stats, I feel like the variance is a bit higher in comparison to O8. Does anyone have a decent PT Stud8 database, and wouldn't mind sharing their Standard Deviation? Personally, I would guess that a 200+BB roll would be pretty reliable.
