Do I quit now and take the profit?

Depends.

How do you feel? Still playing your best game? Tired or not? Somewhere to be?

If you have to go or are tired or not playing well now, take the money and go. If you're still playing your best game now, hang around. If you're worried about losing it back, set a stop loss then go. But stopping jsut because you are ahead isn't the right criteria in my book. But that's me.

Pretty much how good ole JD said. If you feel comfortable, stay and set a stop loss. Whatever you feel comfortable with. Although, with you asking such a question I have to assume you don't feel comfortable with staying.

I myself, usually leave once I double my buyin. Though I play for profit and usually buy in at the max, I think it goes for you too. No sense in risking that hard earned profit on a tilt play or misread.


Maybe leave your seat on the table to start the reset timer, take a 30 minute break, then buy back in at a comfortable amount and continue your complete ownage of those donks.

If Im still up for playing, I take my money from the table, keep $23 and take $10 to the next level, 5c/10c. If you're playing good poker, then whats to stop you continuing at the next level? You lose? you're still up $21
