My biggest concern is still ROR. Not that I am afraid of going broke after putting the money out, but that I don't have enough to play comfortably in the first place.

I think I will have about $500 to play with, and given my current understanding I wonder if that is enough even for the lowest limit $5 tables, unless I can find a good $2 table.

What I mean is that I have read that you should never bet more than 1%(1/100th)(Stanford Wong says 0.66%, 1/150th) of your bankroll on a single hand, so in my case I should never bet more than $5($500/100) which is already my minimum, unit bet. But you also need to spread in order to win right, at least 1-12, ideally, in shoe games.

Is there anyway I can get around this?
