Bankroll management in poker

When you play poker, no matter how well you play, you could lose in the short term. Then you should of course avoid losing your entire bankroll. Poker players do this with so-called bankroll management. This means that you handle your total assets well so that you do not lose everything at once.

The theory behind bankroll management is that you always play with a small part of your capital so that you can always absorb any temporary loss. However, if you play poker well, you always win in the long run. Then you can keep going up a limit and see your bankroll grow steadily!

The math behind bankroll management

Behind the idea of ​​bankroll management in poker is very simple math. Suppose you have 1000 euros at your disposal. You have a 60% chance of winning 1000 and 40% of losing everything. Then of course you will lose your money. However, if you have $ 3000 and bet $ 1000, then the chance is only 40% ^ 3 = 6.4% chance of losing everything immediately.

The idea is that you have a greater chance of winning, but that you can also lose a few times in a row due to bad luck. If you apply bankroll management properly, you will absorb this loss until you start winning again. In the end you will always win again, after all you play good poker!

  The Future of online poker  There are already many who ask me if it is a good option to start today in nano limits and go up stake by stake, elucidating that the future of online poker goes from light brown to dark brown. Let's go by parts: Personally, my idea in poker is not to play 50 years and live on this for the rest of my life surrounded by cards, since I consider that everything has its time, including poker. The stress that it entails is too much and I just want to raise an amount of money so that I can not only buy an apartment but also make independent investments. Regarding whether the game has a future of 2, 5, or 10 years, I have a particularly positive view of it. Another point to touch is a rake, it was initially DISMISSED and thanks to the virtue of French players in the power to make themselves heard when they protest (all sit out for several hours causing losses in the rooms), they managed to stabilize a commission much more appropriate and relevant. Also, a poi
