A Piece of the Pie

For a poker player, going into the fray with the entirety of your bankroll means you have a 50/50 chance of needing to borrow cab fare to get home. The very nature of poker will cut down the odds of you losing the whole thing, in fact there is a good chance it may grow. The problem lies in those times when things are not going your way. Everybody has an off day, and everyone is going to lose money. The problem is that human nature tends to make us want to stop the bleeding.
