    Do you separate your money?
    I'm curious as to whether people separate their gambling funds from their "everyday" funds and to what extent. Do you have different bank accounts specifically for gambling or do you lump it all together? Do you have bank accounts at all for this purpose? Do you only keep cash? Please state whether you are American/Canadian/Whatever because this will affect the decision.

    I know it is probably considered mental accounting to separate them but I've done it for a few years because I was worried that a closure/investigation would impede on my everyday finances which would be a pain in my ass. I keep some cash on hand but mostly keep the roll in an account as it is easier to move around via the intermediaries (moneybookers/instadebit etc.).

        Yes, always keep enough money to pay a month or two worth of expenses just so you don't get in trouble.

                Brock, how do you sneak the $ by your woman? did you open up another bank account and skim off the Tips for a few months?

                    My everyday money is my gambling money, so no, I do not separate my money in that sense. But I do bury all my $100 bills in the back yard & all small bills in the front yard
