[NLHE] - Setting Win/Loss Limits
This thread is conceived, in part, by 2Tone's post on the "How Should I Play This" forum, involving winning money in NL and putting it back into your bank so he doesn't lose the money he just won.
Ok.
A good friend of mine disagrees w/ me on setting win limits. I feel that setting win limits is a great tool to keep yourself sharp, to have a goal, meet it, and to play another day. My friend on the other hand thinks win limits are stupid and if you were to catch a run of good cards, you inevitably didn't "ride out the wave." My main issue is that when I hit a certain goal, I don't want to give anything back. Sometimes, having more money can put you on a reverse tilt, where you feel that you are invincible JUST BEACUSE you are sitting w/ so much money.
Loss Limits
It's amazing to see people continually add and add funds in order to beat the game. How do you determine a loss limit for a particular session? For me, it depends on the game I'm playing and how I rate my opponents. I will NEVER drop $200 in a $25NL table. I would have walked away a long time ago. You?
Your thoughts / comments?
