shared bankroll - need to divorce!!
i started a bankroll with a buddy of mine about 6 months ago. each of us put in $500. we individually had a history of going broke from playing too big or going on tilt, so we decided it would be better for us if we used a shared bankroll to help us both from venturing into high limits and blowing our bankroll (under the assumption that we would not want to hurt a bankroll that someone else also has a stake in)...
it worked great and i actually have learned to excercise great bankroll management. i believe he has done the same based on the records that he has kept. he scored a nice tourney win one month in ($2200+) and has picked up the bankroll when i went through some downswings, but recently he hasn't been that focused. he rarely plays anymore and when he does, he loses little amounts that have added up to over $2K. on the other hand, i have been playing well and accounted for 85% of the playing time and profits over the past two months...it's getting frustrating that i play for long hours and play well, yet i only reap 50% of the benefits. he reassures me that he will be playing more after school is over but i am just not that confident with his dedication and skill anymore...i have a full-time job and other priorities as well but i still find time to help the "business" grow...in fact, he spends more time on halo 3 than anything else! how do i end this partnership without hurting his feelings? or am i just being greedy? was this a big mistake to begin with? i dont know...sighhhhhh |

Re: shared bankroll - need to divorce!!
Be honest and direct with him and tell him you want to split the roll 50-50. if he asks why, gently tell him your reasons wthout hedging. You have every right to make this move.

no need to get emo over this, just tell him you want to go on your own and split up the bankroll 50/50

Get a superuser account at AP and who cares about his losses.

offtopic question: if he managed to win a major online donkament do you think he would give you half the prize?

where is that thread about CTS taking $5k off a guy who needed it for life saving surgery and begged for it back? It kind of reminds me of your situation, his mate blew it all and couldnt face what he had done

Start a seperate account. Play what you feel is fair on the shared account, any extra you want to play do it on an account of your own.
