Yo, here's how to manage your bankroll at the video poker machines:
• Only bring what you can lose, bro. If losing the cash would put a dent in your finances, leave it at home. The house always has an edge, so you could easily go bust if you bet too much. Set a strict loss limit and budget before you buy in and don't go over it.
• Know when to fold 'em. If you're losing consistently or down a certain amount, like 50% or 75% of your bankroll, it's time to stop playing. The more you play, the more likely you are to lose everything. Getting up while you still have cash left saves you from going broke. And if you get ahead, grab your winnings and run before they end up back in the machine.
• Keep your bets modest. A decent rule of thumb is to never bet more than 5% of your bankroll on a single hand. That way a few bad beats won't wipe you out fast. If your stack shrinks, lower your bet sizes too. This gives you more shots to win it back without risking it all at once.
• Don't forget to use your player's card. Sign up for the casino's rewards program. It's free to join and you earn points just for playing that can be used for free play, meals, and hotel rooms. Just be careful not to play more than you planned to just to earn extra points. Only gamble what fits your budget and loss limits.
• Take a timeout if your luck turns sour or your attitude sours. If you're not winning or are getting frustrated, take a walk and clear your mind. Pausing can save your bankroll by avoiding reckless bets and bad decisions. Only come back to play when you're thinking straight and will stick to your bankroll limits. A break is sometimes the most valuable use of your gambling money and time.
