Re: Question for B&M pros
I am a pro, but have only been one for about 4 months. After a big loss in no limit yesterday, I realized that stopping after losing a certain number of buy ins isn't the right way to think about it. This is because a buy in could be 100xBB, 500xBB, or more. Losing 300 big blinds is not so bad but if you lose 1500 then you are getting destroyed and should have stopped earlier. For me personally, I think a 300 big blind loss is enough to pack it up and go home. If this is just one buy in, so be it.
I will quit no matter how good the game is, even though I know that is costing me profit. Having great discipline and following a strict set of rules is going to be best for me in the long run. And also I like the freedom of being able to just start and stop whenever, and not feeling like I have to stay because a fish is at the table. If I want to feel obligated to stay somewhere I'll get a job.
