Nothing like the truth
Wong may have originally coined the thought, but earlier this year you put me on to the concept of the lifetime bank and it is (was) liberating.
What you told "mickey C" is refreshing to hear. The truth generally is. I get really tired of wannabe math geeks who would endeavour to box this guys $700 BR into 100 max bets/sessions BRs/etc.
Your post above is, as always, excellent advice and steeped in reality.
No matter your age or station in life, I am convinced that everyone has a lifetime bank. I also believe that everytime "BR" is mentioned .. at least in places where new timers are listening .. the concept of lifetime bank should be mentioned as well.
Truth be told, if 100 max bets is the bar, you need $6,000 just to work the $5 minimum tables.
With anything less, your ROR is starting to climb fast and your beginning to move from advantage play to the dark edge of gambling anyway. So be reasonable, be honest with yourself, calc your lifetime bank, and start in after them.
As I mentioned before, I would advise investing in CVBJ for those downtimes
between BR building that you might have to endure. :)
Thanks again for providing good sound advice.
