I know people who spend too much money without having a good result.
they get into trouble they spend more money than they can spend, they ask for loans, they spend money that is not theirs, they have divorces that go bankrupt.
they already take the game of poker more than a hobby to a vice
for what is this?
psychological problems ?
lack of work?
Drinking gambling drugs all these things are a problem if you are not earning money
It is all relative.
The millionaire who drinks or takes whatever morning noon and night and loses $5000 gambling in a week would not blink an eye!
The man earning 60000 or 70000 a year would say ooch but get on with it,
The low paid worker or the unemployed this would be a catostrophe because they can not replace what was lost so this group has to really practice
bankroll management the most.
Guys here talk about adrenaline junkies and they are right I want to win a huge tournament but because of that I lose chunks of disposable income but once the mortgage and utilities keep getting paid I pat myself on the back when pay them first before I play poker.
And this Sunday will play the Sunday million no problem $215 already assumed lost by me does not bother me used to spend more than that on taxis in and out of city on a friday night load of alcohol and big leaking kebab before my children were born,
But can you imagine winning over 100000 in 12 or thirteen hours the barman in pub will never offer you any cash back after spending thousands in his venue all year round.
Pay half mortgage in one week interest savings would be huge lol.
Grinding 50 dollars into 5000 dollars over 20 years is not for everybody
Pay something off the bills first before gamble though.
But aim for a bankroll that is worth managing like the guys who sit on top of the big wins thread in cardchat because until then you are just moving peanuts about.
Just my opinion here and I know everybody different and I respect that good luck all.:top:
