Make Your Dreams Come True

Managing your poker bankroll


Listen Later

Managing bankroll in poker is similar to managing cash flow in a business. You need to be able to manage the downswings in order to reap the rewards.

For a $2/$5 No-Limit cash game, the maximum buy-ins are typically between $500 to $1,000. Being down 4-10 buy-ins is very typical, even if you're playing your best poker. This is why I need to set aside $10,000 to $20,000 for my poker bankroll.

In this episode, I'll go deeper into factors to consider, such as aggression levels, your estimated win rates, and sample size for evaluating your results.

Here are the topics we will cover:

  • How to evaluate aggression levels for the games you're playing at
  • Why short-term win rates can be very misleading
  • Sample size you need in order to get a somewhat accurate picture of your abilities
  • Key hands that show how your mindset towards risk can affect your decision making
  • If you want additional resources to help you improve your game, be sure to check out the online courses and programs I use for crushing mid stakes poker.
