Whats worse for a gamblers bankroll: Bad Money Mgmt or Online Casinos
Whats worse for a gamblers bankroll: Bad Money Mgmt or Online Casinos
Unfortunately both have killed me over the years; sometimes at the exact same time.

Hey MadCapper! Good to see you around again.
I'd say bad money management is worse of the two.

Agree. Both are killers. Not sure what leads to a quicker demise.
The bad money mgmt chase or the late night casino runs.

online casinos are brutal, at least 90% have to be rigged. They let you win a little so you think its legit, then when you star betting big, they destroy you

If you're playing -EV games money management is really irrelevant. Probably online casinos though as you lose at a larger clip then straight coin flipping in SB. Except for fishhead of course who never seems to lose at anything

Seriously have never spent a dollar on an online casino. If I have I don't remember it.
Do you do it cause your bored or because you think you can beat it? That is why I don't deal with it because I think it's something I will never win so I lose interest even attmepting it.

Bad money management definitely is the worse of the two. Never ceases to amaze me how often you can be in a sports book and overhear a conversation with some idiot who's bet 20 games on a college football Saturday.

by far online casinos are the most dumbest thing any gambler can do ..... u have better chances of throwing the money out of a 50 story building and then taking the elevator down and getting it off the street with millions of people walking around
online casinos are rigged 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000 % .... i cant believe people actually try to play and think they have a chance at winning .........wake up

If you have good money management, you would never play in an online casino. Can't make money over the long run with either bad money management or playing in an online casino.

Post 'em **. I can't believe anyone would ever go into an online casino. Especially on credit.

never played an online casino...more important is self control...sticking to a set of rules, money management and being a decent capper helps along the way...

There is nothing worse than online casinos, they suck the money out of you at a record pace. Have all my accounts blocked with no ability to play there at all! They all have notes on file that say i cannot reopen it even if i ask them to!!!!

I lost 12K one night in Pinnys Casino back in 2004. I lost 98/100 hands. This after hitting them for 2 four of a kinds with the dealer qualifying in Carib stud within the first 5 minutes of playing. I went up over 10K and ended up losing more back.

bad money management is worse. You can always disable the casino.
