Stop Loss Limits: Pro's and Con's...

[Motorcycle Mike]

Regardless of whether you are a NL or LHE player, I think the idea of a stop loss limit has both pro's and con's, and there are some well respected players and posters that have opinions both ways. Some say it does help their win rates, and others say that they have made comebacks from some very ugly places.

Regardless of the theories, I'm wondering if the players who actually *DO* use some type of stop loss limit could tell us what they thought the effects were on their overall performance?


What are your parameters?

How does it affect your overall win rate?, and

What other benefits does it seem to give you?

Finally, for those that have tried it in the past and have dropped it, what was your reason for doing so?

Thanks for your input!
