Either way for me. Although I like with ACR, I can win on the slots and withdrawal some of it back to my main balance and keep playing slots with what I want to "lose".

the first option with Wallet with specific amount is much better to stop in the right time and avoid losing the whole your bankroll in case you will go over the limit

I don't care where the money is stored, as long as I can withdraw it quickly. If withdrawals are available for both the wallet and the balance, I don't see much difference between the two options.

I agree. It's much better for players with no experience or addicts. The fact that they would need to go back to the wallet and get more money could perhaps slow them down a little.

There is a difference. If you play on a site where there is a Wallet, you can withdraw from it only. If you have a balance somewhere else (Poker, Sportsbook or casino), you would have to transfer it back to your wallet.
I think it's not a bad idea. In a way, it could help manage the BR.

I think the easier it is to use the functionality, the better. I prefer it when money is available for all types of games, without any restrictions or additional actions.

That's probably better for you if you are a responsible player.
But a wallet could be considered as the whole BR, which can help managing it.

I would stick to balance, even though wallet looks tempting

I think of the Wallet as the BR from which you take the amount you are willing to play with in a given session.
But of course, there's always another way to look at things :).

It doesn't really matter. But it's better to keep your money where it's easier to use it. As far as I understand, keeping money in your account is a more convenient option.

The money in a wallet is still in your account. The wallet can be considered like a BR though. You take from it what you need for a given session. Poker or casino. When you're done, you bring back what's left or your winnings.

If I remember correctly, TigerGaming also uses this system.
It's inconvenient, I prefer a united balance.

Nothing wrong with that. It's actually the most common disposition.
But for novice players, the wallet could serve as the BR, that is if they have a little idea about managing it ;).

I think in all poker rooms that I have chosen to play at , they considered all my money as balance and when I switched to casino games I could play with all my poker money balance . There was no protection limit or other rule so ax to be more carefully how much you spend on the casino .

I would prefer to keep the money in my account balance. Why would I need to transfer it somewhere else? Those who want to spend every last penny will do so regardless of where their money is :)

Most poker rooms don't actually use the Wallet system. I only came across 2 or 3 who do that. Evergreen is one of them.

That is so true. Even if it was still in the bank, they would make a deposit and go at it :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:.
