I was at Derby 2 years ago having a good time playing blackjack on the riverboat. A very well known pro pool players sits at my table and before I can say hello he bets 2K on a hand and won. He plays 2 K bets playing two handed and lost both. Gets up and leaves. Everyone else at the table was like WTF??? I just said he's a pro pool player and life resumed with 20-50 dollars bets around. Money management is not their strong suit!
I would rather lose 2k in one hand than lose 2k betting 50 -100 a hand. Give yourself a chance to win something.
