Regarding Tilt and Bankroll Management... I want to stress that this is just my opinion... I think it's something each player has to take 100% responsibility for. There are a ton of resources related to these two topics available on the Interwebs, but ultimately each player has to make an "executive decision" whether to tilt or stray from BR-management. Personally, I broke both rules plenty of times, especially when I was just getting started online way back... then at some point I changed my habits for the better.

Bankroll management is subjective... in my opinion if someone wants to play "seriously" then strict adherence is a must. On the other hand, if a casual player with a reliable source of income wants to play a $55 MTT with a $55 bankroll each week.... well that makes sense to me too. It all depends on each individual circumstance.

Tilt is a different beast altogether. You don't want to be playing poorly regardless of what your bankroll is. Even casual players are "in it to win it" I would think.

Anyway, I hope you're able to make decisions that are more in-line with your "poker value system" going forward. Take heed to what the guys in this thread have posted... it's all great advice.

Best of luck at the tables!
