Default Is there a $$ loss limit you set each day before quitting?

Or do you play a set number of games or hours?

As long as I'm not going on tilt and I think I'm a odds-on favorite, I'll keep playing as long as I have time.

"Or do you play a set number of games or hours?"

Games/hrs = the same. I know that XX sngs will take ~x hrs. Eg 40 sngs will take around 4 hrs.

As for profits losses, kind of. If I suffer a terrible dozen to start with, I'll play through it. If it continues I'll usually take a break.

Average = keep playing. Tend to want a break after I've just done really well (today eg first 8 for the day = four 1sts and four 2nds) I'll take a break until I settle down again.

Lol I'm still behind my ev for the last couple of days though, would need a couple more 1sts to bring me back to ev.

If I'm losing and unhappy about it I might play another game, usually at a lower buyin, and maybe until I win back what I lost or something like that.

By nature, I'm more likely to want to play until I'm up and possibly quit after a win. I used to be horrible about this and would play until sunrise in order to get even. I'm over that now. I think.
