Griff, let's talk about this. This is exactly how I am too...the problem occurs when I build it up. Inevitably after a MTT cash or some positive swing I get ancy or something and end up blowing off a sizeable chunk of my roll. I don't go off the deep end and lose it all by any means, but all of a sudden it's like the challenge is gone and I slip into some mode where I seem to think I have my Neteller hooked up to Bill Gates' checking account. Any suggestions, comments, ideas? |
Wish I had a solution for ya. I don't play MTTs so I never get a big rush of money. No problem getting tempted to play with the big boys.
My problem is tilting when I get stuck.
I hate leaving a table down.
If the cards are running cold and I get to +$0.05 I can leave the table and I'm happy.
But if I get down just a couple of bucks ....<extended rant deleted> |

Set up an automatic transfer for that amount from your checking account into another account, a poker account if you will, each week.

If I were going to pump more outside money into my account this is how I would do it. I'd give myself a weekly/monthly allowance and set it aside/deposit it for poker.
Having an allowance can really reduce the temptation to just keep dumping $$$ into your poker account if you get into trouble. |
