Bankroll management questions

  Can anyone out-vague that?What you say is at the heart of the ever closing circle that en-wraps the boundary between that which we would see and that which is. To go beyond one must journey within by looking without though eyes unencumbered.How was that?

It appears to me that a systematized transitional capabilty for functional logistics conceptualization must be remembered as our end goal.  In other words a balenced and incremental approach can be done while maintaining flexibilty.

So glad I'm no brainiac so I don't have to decipher any of that. I dont think anyone here has this right. Theres only one way to play, and thats to go in with what you can comfortably lose and hope you don't lose it and actually win something before leaving. Messing around with the atms or cashing checks is something the problem gamblers would do. I disagree with the mindset that claims a session is some lifelong thingy. I play for fun and to kill time, so if I win or lose today (and I usually lose) its instantly forgotten about, Ill work some extra overtime or sell things on ebay to make up for it, and when I return to the machines its a whole new day. If the pros and the math people prefer to label it differently, they dont walk in my shoes and theyre wrong. Recreational players such as myself use our bankroll available to play with as our money management, and we dont give a hoot about what happened yesterday, last week, last year, or the time granny visited when her depends gave out just before getting to the ladies room at the Southpoint.

Recreational players such as myself use our bankroll available to play with as our money management, and we dont give a hoot about what happened yesterday, last week, last year, or the time granny visited when her depends gave out just before getting to the ladies room at the Southpoint."Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" ~George Santayana (Reason in Common Sense 1905)Playing as though yesterday didn't happen and that each day is a new day deal belies the fact that yesterday did happen and that each day is connected to every other. Yes of course it's more fun and easier to think that you are winning "today" if you do not include past results. That's the whole dam point.You aren't really winning and it's not supposed to be fun. The source of your fun actually comes from self deception.Please read my post "Definition of Winning". It's a repost of something I wrote before, but it applies to exactly this dynamic. What you are describing is not good advice for a would-be gambler, it is the text book justifications of an addicted gambler...and once again you have worried me. I hope this helps.The fundamental point I'm making is similar to the reason they don't inject athletes with lidocaine and then allow them to play. Of course playing sports is more fun if one can't feel injury or pain, but pain is the body's way of telling you not to do something that's bad for you. Remove it and all you have left is injury and a host of bad decisions.A quick look in the mirror and the age lines on your face should be all that is required to assure you that yesterday did happen and that you are the sum of all the things you have done up 'till now. The only thing you can change is the future and decisions are always best made with full information, not an edited version with all the painful parts redacted.

[/QUOTE]I'd like to vote for Faygo's as the winner of  the out-vauge contest. His was pure genius. I've read it several times and have no idea what he meant nor can I derive any benefit from it whatsoever. Perfect!I reread mine and it almost makes some sense. Can't have that!
