Message: [QUOTE="hugh blair, post: 5549425, member: 244389"] Be lying if said was not struggling myself occasionally self control and mental game is one of the hardest things in poker. I control my bankroll/liferoll to me its same thing by leaving it in 20 different places, Pension funds,savings bricks and mortar banks with no card access is where I leave 95% of it so I can not gamble with it. Then lets say gambling roll budget for year is $5200 stop loss 10-15% salary depending overtime worked xmas bonus ect will leave it in many different places preferably payment processors like Visa current account mainly,bitcoin,paypal,neteller,and Ecopayz leave money on most of them when roll reaches $5700 then $500 goes in deposit envelope to that no access bricks and mortar place. I also try will emphasize try:eek: to keep individual rolls on 10 poker sites and practice good BRM by taking advantage of sites special deposit offers,overlays and freerolling fanatically even if other tables are open playing $100+ buy ins simultaneously. But also I do not beat myself up over busting those small rolls as once it leaves the payment processor and lands on the poker site it is not counted properly - to me until withdrawn + to me as the swings can be huge and fluctuate wildly. Am trying to make small improvements to my knowledge and strategy with the help of other members wisdom by documenting my 2020 poker struggle mad mod position thread as I am far from perfect and human error happens. Admitting you have an issue is great so now you can work on a plan my advice would be to not let the swings of one bankroll on one site effect you too much emotionally or mentally and focus on a long term 1 to 5 year strategy with your game look after the big stuff first small stuff then will take care of itself. At same time play your best game every day pace yourself and quit when your tired up down or break even. Most important advice I could give is never keep a big percentage or your entire roll in one place at risk for long some days I lose 5 times in a row calling preflop shoves with aces good luck.:) .
