J C said:I also believe in the progression system, it has been working well for me so far. I'am curious as to your win % with your system. Do you keep a record of it? Also, any thoughts on proper bankroll size and money management. For example I sit at a table with 40 units and will quit after I win 20 units. Maybe thats why my win % is high. Thanks for your input, looking forward to reading your book.

I know your question is posed to Walter, but I wanted to comment on your second last sentence. You can have a great win percentage if you leave after you're just up a moderate amount, but a win limit of 50% of your buy-in isn't always easily attained so I don't think you're skewing your win-loss record by doing that. (If you always left after just getting up 25%, then yes, I'd say you would be.) I use the same rule, but keep playing if I overshoot the win limit, with a rule of "don't touch anything in that 150% pile". To illustrate: on a buy in of $200, if I have $340 in front of me, I'll keep playing, but only with that last $40.

J C said:Desert dog- Thanks for your input. There are times when you go over your win % and dont realize it, it is at that point that I always get out right away. I believe I'll try your way next time of playing down to 150% It can't hurt and maybe even help you realize a 75% gain and have the option of getting out at that time.
