This takes dicipline. Its true with all gambling. I have never really had the problem of staying to long. There has been lots of times when I walked into the casino with 20$, lost in one bet and walked out. Its just setting goals. usually I will bring whatever I am willing to lose. If I lose it, Im out. On the opposite side... Once I double it, If I lose more then 20% of what I have in hand I walk out. This system has worked very well for me. Although not this month. Im down about 400$, but the 2 months before that I was up over 1k each month. This includes table games and poker Buy-ins. I havent cashed in a poker tournament in over 2 months... Playing about 3 times a month. (Today I played a 50$ buy in... Then took 20$ and won 40$ on roulette. So the tourney ended up costing me 10$)
