Think of your bankroll as precious water in a world of drought. The more you have, the richer you'll be. All the water you will ever acquire is kept in an above-ground water storage tank, like those used by some cities. Imagine that you acquire water, climb up a ladder and add it - one bucket at a time - to a huge holding tank. When you first start playing poker, your tank is empty. You need to spill a little water into the tank to get the process started. As you continue to play poker seriously, you hope your tank will get fuller and fuller.
But what if there are holes in your tank? Then you have leaks, right? I believe it's just plain silly to compensate for these leaks by working harder and harder - playing more hours and learning more sophisticated strategy. Working harder should add extra income, not compensate for income lost. So, the first thing to do is plug the holes.
2. Threats to your water supply. But it's not just leaks we need to worry about. Leaks are our topic of discussion today, and they are problems you can fix; but there are other things that can damage your bankroll. Remember, your bankroll is like your water supply, and it can be threatened in these ways:
Roulette is not a big draw in American casinos because the game, as offered here, varies quite a bit from the European version and the difference can be summed up in one word: greed. American casinos just expect to make too much money from Roulette for it to ever become very popular here. The game came from Europe, but somewhere along the line, some casino operator added a "00" to the wheel, thus giving it 38 'numbers', as opposed to the 37 found on the original wheel. Because of that, the percentage against the player was doubled and, by eliminating the 'en prison' rule, the game of Roulette became one of a HUGE disadvantage to the player. Let me explain all this to those of you who maybe haven't played the game before.
