hi all,
im curious to know if you all have a live bankroll which is seperate to your online or if you just have the 1 poker roll, i have the 2. Also if you have a live roll, roughly how much is it and how do you keep it as a bankroll rather than spare money for situations that arise, for eg. Nice new car you might want to purchase?

Yes, I do have 2 bankrolls. Actually, I don´t even think about my online money as a bankroll because it is just for fun, so I don´t have any goals or targets to meet in online poker. Now, live games is a different thing; I keep a very close eye in my bankroll. I have monthly goals and I take it very serious when it comes to bankroll management.

So how do you not dip into your live funds, i nearly always tend to dip into my live funds to do other stuff, but then again my live bankroll is actually built of for this for eg. Included in my roll would be accomodation (overseas,interstate) expeneses, food etc and buy ins. But im always either paying bills or buying new stuff, laptops and tvs and what nots lol.
