I'm currently using a stop-loss of 2 or 3 BI's depending on how I feel.
I definitely notice myself tilting a bit (not paying as much attention, feeling bad and bored, ...) once I lose my 2nd BI. Might just need to work on that so I can continue playing well no matter how much I lose.
As a win-stop, I wonder if it's even a good idea to have one and what I should base it on.
Say my bankroll is 20 BI's, so 4000 for a 2/2 game where I buy in for 200.
I sit down with 5% of my roll.
Would a win-stop of like 10-20% be reasonable?
Say I run my 200 up to 800, that's now nearly 20% of my roll (17% actually)
If we turn that around, sitting down at a table with 20% of your roll would be an insanely dumb thing do to.
Does that make it logical to get up once you have 20% of your roll in front of you?
My goal is to get to a 50 BI bankroll, from there I can obviously stay at the table much much longer, since I would basically have nearly 0% chance to go broke.
And then start to build up a 50 BI bankroll for 2/5 and maybe eventually 5/10.
Or is setting a win-stop just going to lose me insane amounts of $/h since I'd be playing deeper, everyone else is playing deeper as well the later the night goes.
(I'm playing home games mostly, not sure if this is the same in casino games.)
I've read someone post here that quitting when you're up results in you eventually becoming a losing player, since you'll never be able to make up for big losses if you never go for big wins. Not sure how I feel about that.
I think a good stoploss/win-stop is related to when you are unable to play your A-game anymore due to x amount of reasons. Some people go warm after losing 3 buyins,some can keep playing good +EV poker after busting 5 buyins.
You really need to exercise some good self assesment when playing this game.
Personally i dont have a set stoploss or winstop,i make the decision then and there in the game. If i feel i dont want to be at the table after losing 3 buyins,i leave. Other times i can easily keep reloading after losing 5 buyins. Sometimes i get scared of losing a big stack after winning big, other times i dont care and keep playing good fearless winning poker.
