How important do you think bankroll management is for long-term success in poker?

[ravra]

Bro it's literally everything lmao. Even the best players go broke without it, you can't just yolo your whole stack every session.

[Clotva]

Bro it's literally the difference between grinding for years and going bust in a week. No bankroll management = no long-term success, simple as that fr.

[winevar]

Facts bro, BR management is literally the difference between being a winning player and a degen on suicide watch lmao.

[autumneon]

Without it you’re just gambling, not playing poker tbh

[meriesse7]

It's the only thing separating a pro from a rec player who goes on crazy tilt and blows months of profit in one bad night.

[Kyrvar]

Without it you're just a roulette player with extra steps honestly, seen too many solid players torch their bankroll in one tilted session.

[sydneyess1]

it's the boring part nobody wants to hear about but yeah it's everything, you can play perfect and still get wrecked if you're sitting with too much of your roll on the table

[Vexlyn]

It's everything, honestly. You can be the best player at the table but if you're sitting with half your roll on a single table, variance will eat you alive eventually.

[synax]

ngl it's the least sexy part of poker but it's what keeps you in the game long enough to actually profit from your edge. skip it and you're just one bad run from busting no matter how good you are.

[doseori]

fr, every crusher I know who went broke didn't lose their skill, they just refused to move down in stakes when they should've

[Kyrixtia]

people think its about protecting money but its really about protecting your mindset more than anything, cause once you play scared you already lost. id take a disciplined nit with a tiny roll over a fearless maniac with a deep bank account any day.

[gladeevna]

firing 5 bullets at 200nl with 4 buyins total, suicide lol

[asharry34]

Having a strict stop loss for sessions keeps me playing sharp, it is the only rule I follow religiously now.

[lorixerra]

People obsess over bankroll rules but sometimes you just gotta take a shot when the game is super soft otherwise you stay micro stakes forever.

[legacyolmia]

without it ur just gambling with extra seps imo

[alexaero]

yeah ngl it's teh whole game bro, one bad downswing and ur cooked if ur roll aint right ?

[lorvi]

no roll no soul, saw a guy punt 3 buyins at 2/5 in ten mins last week its brutal

[opinicus416]

I think some overestimate it. Ive seen crazy heaters save terrible rolls.

[Phantari55]

even a perfect roll mens nothing if you chase losses after a bad beat honestly

[luxioxen]

Bankroll management matters but people treat it like a sacred script when really it just prevents the most obvious disasters, not tilt or bad reads.

[ryxus]

Pretty important I guess but a lot of the most miserable players I know have decent bankroll discipline, they just hate folding more than they like money.

[irisari]

[thornarki]
