Bankroll Rules for Beginners
Set limits before your first bet, not after a loss.
Non-negotiable rules
- Use a dedicated bankroll separate from rent, bills, and savings
- Cap exposure per offer (for example, 5% of bankroll maximum)
- Set a daily loss limit and stop when you hit it
- Never chase losses by increasing stake size
