Profit or Loss Cut off

Generally, do you set a win or loss limit for a session or day?

I realize that what happens today, other then trying to play
perfectly, doesn't matter in the long run.

Do you just take a certain amount of money to the casino for each session?

Do you play a number of hours or a number of hands?

Thanks for your input.

Truushot1,

I do not use monetary win/loss limits.

I play as long as I want, when I want. If I only have a hour, then I play
for an hour. If I've got all day, I sometimes play all day.

If I am getting tired or I feel like I am on a 'losing streak' (however I
feel at the time), I may take a break from video poker and play penny slots
or just do something else for awhile. So, maybe, that's *kind of* like a
'loss limit'? But, it's not a *predetermined* loss limit.

There are other reasons that I may stop playing.

If I am play a progressive - and it hits - I move on to another bank or take
a break.

If I am getting hungry, I will take a break to eat.

If I hit a royal, I move to another machine (or take a break). I know that
moving to another machine is completely irrational. But, it's not the only
thing that I do that's irrational. :wink:

No.

Yes, and it's enough so that I have never run out of money for the day
so far.

Do you play a number of hours or a number of hands?

I do both based on my objectives. Most of the time I have a certain
number of hours I want to devote to video poker. Sometimes I want to
play a certain number of hands to reach a goal for a lucrative
promotion or a mailer level.
