I enjoy poker, but I have a self-imposed limit on how much and where the cash comes from to play.<BR/><BR/>I'm a husband and a father first and foremost. I started my bankroll a few years ago. It was seeded with money I had saved by not eating out at lunch. Its got a nice little ching to it, but when its gone. I'm done.<BR/><BR/>To maintain an ability to play without fear of losing my bankroll, I force myself to play at limits and lengths that won't wipe it out. Only then can I play without fear.<BR/><BR/>Quitting is a key component to bankroll management. Sometimes I quit because I'm emotional not up to the game. Other times I quit because I'm tired. If I've been losing at a regular slope, its time to regroup. Sometimes I quit because the wife is, well, you know...I gotta go.<BR/><BR/>Quitting because you are broke is losing. Its more fun to play other peoples money.OhCaptainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399011365659793142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-127556495260200365.post-917326923171160642008-05-06T15:29:00.000-05:002008-05-06T15:29:00.000-05:00Yeah, he's fantastic.

I read and gave away "Elements of Poker" to a friend who has to read it, and I'm going to buy another copy for myself.Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181215527323378978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-127556495260200365.post-14632419470942914212008-05-06T15:25:00.000-05:002008-05-06T15:25:00.000-05:00To simply say his work influenced me would be a gr...To simply say his work influenced me would be a gross understatement.
