    That the player is winning "decently" is not the only
    information needed.
    What people consider a decent win rate varies from game
    to game, and person to person. Winning 6 big blinds/100 hands is decent in a
    tough online HSNL game. Winning 30 big blinds/100 hands is decent in a soft
    online micro-states game. The difference changes the bankroll requirements by a
    factor of 5.
    Multi-tabling does not intrinsically change the bankroll
    requirements. However, those who play 10 or more tables usually accept much
    lower win rates as "decent" than those who play 1-4 tables at the same level.

    The standard deviation varies tremendously from player to player and game to
    game. Some full ring players have a SD/100 of 60 big blinds or less. Some
    shorthanded players have a SD/100 of 160 big blinds or more. (See the stats
    threads in the strategy forums.) This difference means a factor of 7 difference
    in bankroll requirements for the same win rate.
