BANKROLL

This is a reference chart displaying the safest and best bankroll amounts you should have before you start each game. The 1 year plus column numbers are a slight overkill compared to what a well experience and established player would need, but they are the perfect test. The left column shows the bet amount on the Flop and on the Turn. If you lose any of these bankrolls over 10 times, then you shouldn't play that game with those limits for that length of time.

But don't worry if you lose your bankroll at the lowest limits in the shortest session, that doesn't mean you have to quit for life. Most low limit players play very well and conservative. At limits like $15-$30 and $30-$60 there is much more gambling and bad play, but can you afford that kind of playing? Your going to have to find a happy medium for your mind and your wallet so that when you win the amount will have somewhat of a meaning but when you lose you won't really be too fazed by it.

***You should have double the six hour session in your pocket before you sit down***

If you lose the 1-session amount TWICE you should quit for the day. A good time to leave when your ahead is when you have increased your initial amount by %80 and above. So if you started with $100 and look down and have anything over $180.00 or more it's a good time to leave.

Also remember never bring any debit or credit cards to a casino to play Poker. No plastic only cash or casino chips.
