Got to take a bow to him and say; "Your the man".

One of the biggest things that haunt so many players is the following:

Bac players harboring such prejudices; "I try not to think about that possibility when I'm at the table playing, wagering or not, thinking or not. But it's always there, at the very back of my mind and it comes and goes no matter if I literally am thinking about it or not."

And if you do not know what I am talking about, you just have not played long enough yet.

I wrote the following:  "All I know for me and countless others, compiling the win money into your bankroll sitting on the table, only makes it subjected to larger bets and being lost easier than it does without some kind of plan."

A huge factor that prevails is; "The money in my pocket", or "The available buy-in money on a card I have", will play within the background and cause your game to slant in the way of the casino!  If you bring an X amount of cash and available funds access to the casino, planning on buying in with $XYZ and then "If I lose, I have additional funds for another try", doing that and saying that is WRONG, BAD, HORRIBLE and much more.  That way of thinking and acting will hurt you, simply and seriously.  DISCLOSURE:  The times I used to do exactly what I just wrote about, I did get sucked into the casino way of 'falling prey' to them.  If I added up all of the funds that I eventually won with the re-buyins, the amount would not total to be the entire amount of re-buyins.  So, I write from experience, my experience and the experience of others I have witnessed as well. 

Setting the unit goal is also wrong.  Sounds kind of contradictory, but it is not!  By setting the unit goal to stop, etc., you are removing the power of great opportunity to capitalize on winning presentments that might be presented while you are there playing.   True professionalism should have a sum of capital to risk, whether that risk is losing or winning. 

You need to figure something into your own M.M.M. that will allow you to keep playing if you are winning, all the while holding a certain portion of the continued win money. 

1/3rd, 1/3rd, 1/3rd With the Win Money

Here is the summation.

When I win, I take 1/3 of the win money and pocket it, cash it and will not in any way whatsoever use it.  I take another 1/3 of the win money and increase my Bankroll with it.  I take the remaining 1/3rd of the win money and keep it as a reserve if I lose my bankroll I am playing with and still desire to play longer.

You can do it with any amount of win.  Say you buy in with $600.00 and get up to $1,800.00.  Take $400 and pocket it.  Increase your Bankroll to $1,000.00 and put the other $400 in your pocket as a backup bankroll.

Say you won another $1,000.00.  Take $350.00 and make your bankroll $1,350.00.  Take another $350.00 and put it with the $400.00 and that makes $750.00 you can't touch.  Take the other $300.00 and put it with the reserve bankroll you have of $400 making it now $700.00.

For me, I get the piece of mind, that I always have another chance if I lose and still want to keep playing.  I have something from my win money already 'locked up' and cannot be touched.  I have a slightly bigger bankroll.  When I do these things, it stops me from playing the way I used to with win money, and seldom holding on to it when things turned ugly.

All I know for me and some others, compiling the win money into your bankroll sitting on the table, only makes it subjected to larger bets and being lost easier than it does without some kind of plan.

Do it with any amount of win money, adjust it for your own psychological well being.  To me and most I speak with, it is easier to walk away after winning, when you know you have really tried to win more and maybe one more shot or another round at a table after a meal or a break, etc.  Maybe you can win money and stack it up in front of you and value it properly, but for most players it makes them play a bit more recklessly and dangerously then when they initially sat down with XYZ bankroll.

For me, I am satisfied with the way it works out when I do some kind of plan as I mentioned here.  When I just throw the winnings into the stack in front of me, I have to attempt calculations at how much for this and how much I should cash out 'later', etc.  If I put all my winning  into my pocket and employ 'attempted' willpower, there is no reward and satisfaction for the instant time, while sitting there playing.  If I divide it up as I go along, I have clearer mind and gives me a psychological advantage.

Reference 1 + 4 Side Parlay

You know I was talking to a couple very experienced players at the baccarat table the other night and I got out of paper and pen and showed them my 1 + 4 side parlay wager, that I constantly do.

You know take just $50 because a lot of tables are $50 minimum and parlay it four times after you win once is a net profit of $1,550. Take that same $50 and flatbet it you, need 31 wins to make the same amount of money. It looks like this:

$50.00.   Win wager: $100  $200 $400 $800.  Net Profit: $1,550.00

Flat Bet would look like this:

$50.00.  Win wager each time:  $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50 $50

And if you ever followed me and read anything I've written about my 1 + 4 side parlay wager,  it is not a consecutive dedicated wager.  I always have a main wager as my base bet, that is what I called my side wager and I'm wagering that out of my win money that's allocated four, five, six or seven times to complete one 1 + 4 side parlay wager.

Think about it, if you play to win you play to win!

Things that are vital to the overview of larger and powerful profit, what we all really want, seriously.

I am not talking about a dedicated positive progression with streak, repeating Bankers, etc., etc., and so on and so forth.  I am talking about good common sense Money Management Methods and belief in your method along with adherence to it.

Advance Tips:

Take your win money, put it away and get ahead.  Do not fall in the trap and believe the nonsense written so frequently on the forums about easily doubling and tripling the base bankroll/buy-in, etc. 

Adhere to your buy-in you brought to the casino and literally forget about your bankroll and other available cash on cards, etc.

Leave your win money out of the bankroll, it does not belong in your bankroll.  If you won what you did with a certain bankroll, all building yourself a larger bankroll will do, is make you less appreciative of what you had/have, etc.  Been there, done that.  You are are no different!

Always employ 1/3rd, 1/3rd, 1/3rd with win money after getting a certain amount of it.

Replenish your Bankroll when you do lose, but do not apply all your win money to it.

When you get to the point, your win money is a whole second bankroll as well as having the excess win money being used for other purposes, then you are on your way to comfort.

You must apply your 7 Steps M.M.M. to the following. 

Once you do, the advantage you award yourself is huge!

Tips Reference Money Management Method (MMM):

Wager Size or When to Wager, has nothing at all to do with my M.M.M.

M.M.M. is a procedure, not a scheduling of what is to be wagered.

Do not allow your betting to control or guide you as an automatic to continue on a pre-planned or desired scheduled track, because the highest majority of the times you allow that, you will lose your entire buy-in no matter the size it was. 

Some people change up what others say and attempt to classify those proven things that help some of us, will say things like, Money Management will 'Soften the Curve', or 'De-Escalades Bet Sizes' for the players security to prevent him from losing large amounts.  Horse Garbage!

M.M.M. allows (at least mine does) for me to keep winning with 1/3rd, 1/3rd sideways and while another 1/3rd is locked up, then alerts me and governs me to stop if I actually lost the preset amount of a win being 1/3rd or possibly 2/3rds. 

My M.M.M. also allows me to wager larger and harder without risking my buy-in.

Smaller wins rather than larger losses, contribute well to Risk Capital that must be viewed as such.  Stop the confusion of putting yourself into the "I Must Win" phase.  Let yourself capitalize on the best opportunities.  But in order to see them at the table, you have to have the mind-set and the patience that will allow you to do just that!

If you pre-set a certain definitive number of units to be a stop, such as 30, 50 or 60, you are putting a total negative factor into the picture that will certainly distract your attention and a heck of a lot more.

You should use a predetermined amount of capital for your buy-in that is a small proportion of your total bankroll.  There is no other way to determine buy-ins that would be to your advantage.  Your buy-in must be viewed as pure risk capital without stressing its purposes, limits or what it is producing or not producing.  Otherwise your distraction and dependency will overwhelm your ability to produce.

Flat-bet into a--up positive progression, that eventually leads you to a 1 or a 2 Xs total your buy-in amount.

Your win money should be grouped up and then divided up to continue.  Allow your win money to win additional wagers or cool you off, etc.  Say you quickly won $1,000.00 in 2 wagers.  You can easily squeeze 6 wagers out of that; $125.00/$125.00/$125.00/$125.00/$250.00/$250.00. Or something similar to those.  With those wagers, see how much you can win.  6 good chances to possibly get 6 decent positive progressions on the casino gives me clear-mind and a huge advantage.

You clearly misunderstand and/or misinterpret my Money Management Method along with its positive progressions and parlay wagers. 

I have done very well with exactly those since I began allowing those things to govern my sessions and play. 

I want to bring something out about W's and L's posted on gambling forums and boards on the internet.  W's and L's are common and as a standard of the forum posting field, more likely than not, the author will not tell you how those W's came about.  I mean, how he chooses the wager that won the bet. 

IMO, I have found countless authors will run hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands of hands with 1 or 2 scheduled wagers are being applied.  They will accumulate downswings or clumps of losses before their scheduled wagering equals out or they get a few units ahead. Eventually they will stop their session on paper and show a +5, +10, +20 unit profit, etc. They repeatedly do this.

Such as:  W-W-L-L-W-L-W-W-L-L-L-L-L-L-W-W-L-W-L-L-W-W-L-L-L-L-W-L-W-L-L-W-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-W-W-W-L-L-W-W-L-L-L-W-L-L-L-W-L-W-W-W-W-L-L-L-W-L-L-L-L-L-L-W-L-W-L-W-L-L-L- W-W-L-W-W-L-W-W-W-W-L-W-W-L-W-L-L-W-L-W-L-W-W-W-W-W-W-L-W-W-W-W-L-L-W-W-W-W-L-W-W-L-W-L-L-W-W-W-W-W-W-W-L-W-L-L-W-W-W-W

?.and their W's and L's will continue and continue for hundreds of hands. They play and play and play running their continuous stream on W?s and L?s.  At points risking 24 or 30 lost units, which in reality at a real B&M casino would be into thousands and thousands of dollars. Personally have no idea if they are continuously wagering on the Banker and hoping and waiting on the presentments of Bankers to get ahead than the Players side.  Of course on paper, they can easily carry this on for 5 or 10 shoes and running down, say 40 or 50 units.  But in person with their real cash at risk in a B&M casino, they offer no proof that they actually do any of this. 

I have seen situations where picking any side, Banker or Player or any situation, Chop-Chop or Second Line or wagering only after 2 or 4 repeats in a row, etc., etc., or a host of dozens of other possibilities, etc., would all prevail for a very limited amount of wins and then followed by every other thing except what the gambler was trying for.  Lost units would amount into the tens of thousands easily at $25.00 to $150.00 a hand, realistically low wagering at most all casinos.

Regardless, run a group of 20 shoes and continually wager something on them, then run another group of shoes and continuously wager that same thing on that group. Then run another group and another group.  You will get ahead; you will get behind and possibly exactly even several times. But, it is a risk of your bankroll and buy-ins that are so far against you to gain profits and be able to really make something out of the game; it is on the verge of being ludicrous.   

Here is a quote that someone on BetSelection has said to me and about me. "@Alrelax, Idiotic hyper progressions look rewarding but are fatal. Actually, progressions work in direct proportion to chance of losing all. You win pretty fast with it until you lose back all. Take classic martingale for that manner, it wins one unit easily till it gives back all in just one bad stretch. Casino would love to see a player using marty. He ensures the slowest win and the fastest loss."  My response.  Well, if the gambler wagers it with common sense, use an advantage Money Management Method for himself, etc., he will be able to put those wins away and use a certain portion of those progressive wins to maintain his win status and keep profiting.  When his win status falls off, if that gambler continues to follow his Money Management Method, he will cash out and take a nice profit. 

However, point being if the gambler is going to continue his wagering, whether flat, every third hand, every Banker or Player, every chop or every second line only, every 4th or 5th wager coming up after the first 3 or 4 or repeating Bs or Ps, etc., the gambler will certainly give it all back, EACH AND EVERY TIME, no matter what.  I have witnessed just that countless times at every B&M casino I have ever played at.

Two short examples of what I have read on the internet.  One author claims to risk 60 units with his wagering plan to make a few units.  Well, 60 units at an extremely low bet mount of $25.00 is $1,500.00.  Risking $1,500.00 (Plus) to maybe profit $75.00 or $100.00?  Another author boast on 300 units is his (almost max) drawdown, whatever almost means, and say it was at $25.00, that would total to be $7,500.00 and if it was at $50.00, the total at risk would have to be $15,000.00. 

With no guarantee, no written assurance, and the possibility that the entire bankroll can disappear, to me that only complicates the matter of frustration, aggravation and generally adds to----just getting sucked in.
