Keep your poker money for playing poker only ...if u wana withdraw an use it use only 25% of it. same with lossing money in poker if you loss 25% of your money take a break or play next day..don't rush if it's not your day. You still have 50%money if you loose...be smart be wise...all the best at the table's

It’s just not at all a fact that the next day the situation can not only remain the same, but also worsen.

I agree that you should keep your poker money for playing poker only and it's so important to know when it's not your day on the tables, but I think you can't lose 25% of your bankroll in one day because you can easily have 4 bad days in a row

I completely disagree with you. 25% !!!
Are you seriously ready to spend such a significant part of your bankroll ???
Maybe if your bankroll is $ 5-10 then yes, such costs are possible. But if your bankroll is for example $ 500 ???
Are you really ready to spend 100 or more dollars a day ???

Agreed. Bankroll management is important for long-term poker and even for micro-stakes, I wouldn't want more than 10% of my bankroll in a single event/night or whatever. The only time I'd even consider this is if it is a "calculated risk" shot at something special like a famous event or higher stakes etc. with the understanding that losing is very possible.

Poker legend Chris "Jesus" Ferguson once said something like: "Ideally, you shouldn't have more than 1% of your bankroll on the line for any given event". This is easier said than done if one has a lot of money, but I completely agree with where he is coming from.

On a little bankroll of $100, then risking no more than $1 per event (1% as recommended) is possible, but takes discipline and grinding for sure. However, on a bankroll of say a million ($1,000,000), then 1% (10,000) feels like it has "more freedom with it", but this is likely just an illusion and takes a lot of discipline as well.

Variance is a serious thing that can take out even the best players. Variance may not seem too important for someone without much bankroll experience, but I assure you that a life-time of poker (like the careers for these poker professionals) will inevitably face MANY ups and downs and they need to manage bankroll safely to survive those down swings.

That's what I think, if you want to succeed in poker, the main thing is bankrool control, it's such a "simple" thing and many players don't know how to do it or don't do it because they don't even care about their bankroll, but it's something that has to be strictly followed in poker.

Isn't it better to play poker when you think you have a good mood without thinking too much about how much you lose or win but only to your pleasure?

I am afraid that with this approach to bankroll management, you will inevitably sooner or later lose the entire bankroll. Reduce the number 25% to 2%, you will have a chance)

I agree, if we do not respect the rules of management of banckroll and that we persist in playing while the variance is against us. in the end we will lose everything in the same time.

I agree I can only when downswing is on and hit the tilt it’s hard enough to say that I’ll continue tomorrow. But it is a fact that one must take strength in oneself and be able to stop.
If you don’t go don’t force it maybe, next time you calm down maybe after a little analysis it will go better.

Confidence in yourself and in your game is the key to success. You will always be uncomfortable if you know that the next distribution can leave you without money. Bankroll makes it possible to feel comfortable at the table - you are ready for the game and are not afraid to lose, nothing distracts you.

You cannot make a million in poker in one night - on the path to success you will go through a long series of gaming sessions. But any of them may end unsuccessfully for you. This is a risk that every poker player understands. And putting all your money on the line many times in a row is not a good idea. Such a strategy is more suitable for roulette, rather than a professional poker game.

I do believe after a downswing to take a break, to rebuild your confidence to get back into the game... but I'm sure we've all had are moments.

My strategy is more than 20% lose of bankroll leads to withdrawal of all money and 1 week play freerolls.

HI. CERTAINLY IT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED TO ME, WE THINK WE WILL RECOVER AND THE DEFEAT ONLY INCREASES. SAD DESPERATION.

I totally agree with most of the views on here about bankroll management, risking 25% of your bankroll is way too risky on any given day as others mentioned 1% or 2% is way more logical and more likely to return rewards in the long run.

I agree. Poker money shoulb be kept in a growing bankroll, to be able to play bigger and better international events. However if you make a huge score. take your profits and invest them plus, have a good time:

Hello.
If you really use this strategy, then you better find another hobby. For example, a game like bingo, roulette or lottery will work well for your strategy.

It's BAD bankroll management. Your daily buy-ins should not exceed 5%-10% of your bankroll. If those could be less than 5% - it's a PROPER bankroll management.

there are always periods in the game when luck turns away from you. But this is temporary.

You guys should learn the basics of bankroll management! I hope you do not do as you wrote! Otherwise, this is a direct path to bankruptcy!

You are right, this is true.

25% of your bankroll in one day ???? Yes, this is a disaster !!!!!!!!!!

Maybe over time. it's not working yet) Thank you, of course. But I'm not worried about the bankroll. I play for fun.

I always lose my bank rolls, by playing in tournaments I cant afford. But the last time I won a tournament I am a lot better now. Better at managing my bank rolls, you learn as you go.

good advice if you are not a ludoman

I will remember your offer for the future. So far I have not had to manage my bankroll. I'm just collecting my bankroll.

I wish i could say the same.

I personally don't care about bankroll. I play for fun, if I can win then I immediately withdraw some of the money,to feel that my time was not wasted.I can lose my entire bankroll in one night, I can spin it for months.I play poker on an all or nothing basis
