    How do you control yourself from going "All-In"?
    Anyone know. Everytime i play i have the urged to lay it all on the line. I'm a low ass player usually deposit $30 at matchbook. Last week i made $270 from $30 but went all in and lost. Also is it best to tail cappers or just pick your own plays?

      Get drunk one night

      Hide money all over your apt/house

      Each time you go all-in, look for some more money. Key is to think you're all-in when you're not.

        Thanks for the answer guys, but the problem is that those ****ing MLB games are on early and it makes me want to be so i can bet big on the later NBA games. Even though i know shit about MLB, its tempting.

          Yes, you fade your own plays.

                just try not to look at your balance. Just pretend you have to keep your standard bet. I had the same trouble when i was younger and a beginner, but it gets easier with time.

                    If you start with 30 and really get it to 270 make $60 of it UNTOUCHABLE. No exceptions, no locks, no buts, no anything. Then if you piss the rest away you can at least keep in mind you doubled up for SOME consolation.
