THE SHORT VERSION
Quick answer
A bankroll is a spending cap, not money expected to return. Divide it into sessions, choose a small fixed stake and set both a loss limit and a stop time. Do not add funds after either limit is reached.
DECISION POINTS
What matters here
Exclude rent, bills and savings.
Set stake before the session.
Track total wagered, not only balance.
Stop on time regardless of result.
PRACTICAL CHECK
How to check it properly
- Complete the checklist while calm and before money is involved.
- Use primary sources for legal, term and payment claims.
- Set limits that cannot be expanded during the session.
- Keep only the records needed for a clear audit trail.
Use the result to make a decision before a balance, promotion or time pressure is involved. If current terms, account information and support answers do not match, pause and resolve the conflict first.
READ BEFORE ACTING
Risk note
