Default Re: Out of Jail...now object of ridicule

I know where you're coming from. However, what about the 2 week losing streaks that we all go on from time to time? How are you supposed to know when it's time to walk away. Is there a signal? How many times have you been buried in a game and gotten out. If you had quit earlier in that game, there would have been no getting out. The question is then, when is it time? If you have a correct bankroll for the limit being played, what is the point of a stoploss? Although, in most cases I would agree that the psychological effects can be difficult to deal with, on this occasion, I didn't feel bothered by the losses. I was still confident that it would turn around. BTW, I kept checking my stats as I often do to see if I had started calling with a lot more hands. That was not the case so I was satisfied that I was still playing my A game. I'm sure everyone has been where I was at least once or twice. I'm interested to get opinions on stoploss vs playing on?
