How You Know When You're Playing Over Your Bankroll

Here is a simple test to determine if you are playing over your limit.

If you would not be happy or confident with a coin flip (even odds) with your stack then you are playing over your limit.

This is a good measure because at least sometimes you'll be forced to make a coin flip decision (say pocket 8's versus AK).

You're playing too high.
