coming from poker it's definitely a mindset shift. in poker BRM protects your skill edge, but against negative EV casino games, BRM is basically just loss control and session duration control. i treat it strictly as entertainment money bring a fixed buy in, if i double up i pocket the original buy in, and if i bust the session, I'm done. trying to treat negative EV games like a poker bankroll is a trap.
In poker its much easier to build a bankroll and keep it healthy , maintain it , have control over it . In casino this is very hard to accomplish . Casino games want you to bet more and more , in no time you can lose control , lose a lot of money
In tournament poker (MTTs), bankroll management protects you from severe variance and keeps you solvent during long downswings: as a rule of thumb, maintain at least 150 to 300 buy-ins for your average stake (ABI)—scaling toward the higher end for large-field or high-variance formats like PKO and Mystery Bounty—move down in stakes immediately if you hit a preset stop-loss of 20–30% of your total funds, and keep your poker bankroll strictly separate from your personal life expenses.tigre666 said:
