Bankroll management is overrated

[daneblazer]

I'm not taking about betting more than you have, going all in on the Heat game 7, or going on tilt and playing 5/10 NL with a 1500 bank roll, because you still need to adhere to that.

I'm talking about taking shots or you'll be forever grinding at the stakes or betting the units you're grinding at now. If you're playing 1/2 poker move up to 2/4 or 2/5 nl and put a 3-4 buy stop loss. Once it's gone, it's gone, move back down and start building up the roll again.

How much you can win at higher stakes is highly disproportional to your skill. Be aggressive with your roll and take some shots.

Fck managing bankroll. Hit it - hit it hard - and reload.

Exactly. Thats the only real way to get ahead. Betting the same units everyday gets boring.

[Louisvillekid1]

I am gambling like this now as well

[jjgold]

Well it seems if you like action all the time you cannot raise your stakes but if you want to have good scores Blazer probably right

[BIGDAY]

Take your shots and hit the Pound plays.

not a good idea to go over your head in poker. opponent will sniff it out and bully you

Money management is for professional gamblers.
You have the right to push all in on a bet. It's your money.

see this quote is complete hollywood bullshit because there isn't a game in vegas where you play against the house and you can bet according to your hand after seeing it enough to really hurt vegas in anyway..

[daneblazer]

Gold it's fine as long as I park it on top of a hill so I can push it down the hill to jump it off

[BIGDAY]

Dane! Say it ain't so bro! Giving such bad advice to the youngun's! Betting above your range, playing higher stakes you cant' afford, is the pathway to broke dick fuk ville! Come on man, you know better! Slow and steady wins the race! One bad day of losers and you're fuk'ed!

Except on the day you're pounding losers, you think are winners!

But what are the winners?

Dane is always educating.

Are you stopping it Fred Flintstone style by dragging your feel through the floor too?

Actually yes, I go through a pair of shoes every week. Maybe it'd be more economical to get a new car now

Blazer give us a big parlay tomorrow

Management is overrated in banking

[seaborneq]

Money management is the real deal unless you like the reload process better than the withdraw/payout process. I would rather grind my way to a small profit than push all my chips to the middle of the table(all in) and crap out. To each its own but I have yet to meet a sane person who thinks all in are profitable and wise. Might as well spend a premium on a 50/50 pick from a taut and let it ride. No sure things out there worth shoving all the chips to the middle of the table.

i think as long as you have a plan, that's more important for most of us here who are not living off the winnings. as in, it doesn't need to be some strict 1-2% bet size, but you need some sort of structure or it will spiral out of control. for instance, when i reload, i oftentimes start pretty small, and i'm all in for a bet or two (or more depending on the situation) to get some footing, then i'll start some sort of other plan, usually a goal to hit a certain amount of bets, all equal in size, before i take some out. then after i take some out, i lose it all almost immediately then i start over again.
