I could lose the entire trip BR if a really bad shoe starts where I feel I have sufficient funds to play. I used to carry $20K+ and had a top 1 shoe loss of $8K'ish until I advanced my approach some. Now my max loss shoe is about half that or $4K'ish despite playing with a higher max bet. This resulted in being able to carry a much smaller trip BR.
