erac22 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I like keeping my poker funds seperate from the money in my bank account. So right now, I have about 2/3 of my bankroll sitting on poker sites and the remaining sitting in neteller. With all the recent neteller scams, I worry if this is the most secure way to keep your roll. So just wondering, where do you keep your money? Let's talk about bankrolls of more than 5k.erac**also, I figure it's a good idea to keep at least some money in neteller, in case you want to transfer it somewhere immediately for a tourney or something. My real question i guess, is if you're only putting 10-20 percent of your roll in play at a time, is there any reason to keep a lot of your money on the pokersite itself.

Last I checked, NETeller and poker sites don't pay interest. Idle cash is a waste. Link to post Share on other sites
ryansd 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I actually agree with sixhands. I like to keep alot of my roll in my actual bank account, that way if I do go on tilt..I have to complete the actual transfer transactions, and I can be more aware of how much of my roll im dipping into. Not much time, your right, however it does help a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
erac22 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 The reason for discussing larger bankrolls is because security issues aren't as important below 5k. Tilt is not an issue. I'm just curious to see how people keep their roll? What do you do? Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just curious to see how people keep their roll? What do you do?My bankroll is safely four account transfers away from the poker site. If I go broke on what I have online, it takes 2 days to reload, which is enough time for me to re-read "Ace on the River" and get my mind straight.Oh, wait, I forgot... Washington State sucks. I have to play in the casinos now. Link to post Share on other sites
