Champ or Loser

Without knowing the exact facts, it’s easy to categorize gamblers into three categories:
- Big Winner
- Small Loser/Winner
- Big Loser
The big mass of the gamblers is, of course, in the last category, "Big Loser". I would say that about ninety to ninety-five percent of the gamblers fits into this category. When reading "Big" you really should read it as percent of the money won or lost. Even if someone just plays for ten dollars for his or hers entire life, wins and doubles it, is a "Big Winner". You see, the person wagers ten dollars and comes out with twenty dollars, so his or hers net profit is one hundred percent. That being said, the difference in between a "Big Winner" plus a "Big Loser" could be very small.
Let’s say you are a tiny stake Texas hold em gambler, your net revenue per month is about five % of one’s bankroll. So in case you started out with a deposit of $100, first month you’ll go five dollars which would rise your bank roll to 105 dollars, next month $110.5 and so on. To go from 100 dollars to $200 takes amongst thirteen to fourteen months if your internet revenue is 5 % per month. What about in the event you began with $200? In thirteen to fourteen months, beginning with two hundred dollars as well as a web profit of five per cent each month, you’ll have among three hundred and eighty dollars – four hundred dollars in bankroll.
This is another example, but here your web revenue is -5 percent per month and your deposit was one hundred dollars. After a year, your bank roll would have gone down to fifty to fifty-five, which is practically 50 per cent of your beginning bankroll. Lets now say that you got a bonus of 100 dollars, so your beginning bank roll would be $200 with the same net earnings every month. Soon after a yr now, you’d still have 108 dollars.
This is why bonuses are so important when you start building your bank roll. Bonuses can turn a "Big Loser" into a "Small Winner", or a "Small Loser" into a "Big Winner".
