Default Re: Things it took me a while to learn part 4, Bankroll management

I made a personal calculator that I update and adjust constantly.

Currently it runs over 35~ games with 10 spots for HUSNG, 10 spots for low variance games, and 10 spots for NLHEMTT, 1 spot for LHE, LO8, Stud, Stud8, and Razz and 1 for HORSE.

It self adjusts to allow me to take shots depending on my current trend of running; I'm about un-bustable. That said, I tend to run on the nit side of the MTTSNG side of it because I can't redeposit and I'm a recreational player. The HUSNG and MTTSNG serve to control my bankroll variance and increase my ability playing HU and late-game. When I make FTs, I plan to win them - mostly because I'm the most experienced shorthanded and HU player at the table; at least that's my goal.

But yes, my bankroll is entirely self-adjusting and allows me to make shots (I punish myself a lot for taking bigger shots if I sat into say, the 50/50 on FTP and can't unregister. I calculate higher than my allotted and my calculator auto-adjusts the rest of my games to average out my buy-ins to make up for the shot.
