What I find interesting about online poker is that success isn’t just about talent—it’s also heavily influenced by [B]discipline[/B]. Then there’s the psychological component. It’s no coincidence that some of the most successful players, like Fedor Holz or Daniel Negreanu, started their careers as young men. They didn’t have big responsibilities and, in the worst case, could always take a different path. What I’m trying to say is: the less financial pressure you have, the easier it is to handle a downswing and stay motivated to keep going.

I came across an approach that I found really fascinating and convincing:
If you stick to [B]bankroll management[/B], you can theoretically never lose in poker. The idea is simple: if your bankroll drops below $150, you switch to playing freerolls until you build it back up. Once you're over that $150 mark again, you only risk 0.5% to 3% of your bankroll per game. If you hit another downswing, you go back to playing freerolls.

I found this approach so appealing because, let’s be honest, the most painful part of poker is losing your own money. This strategy makes the game feel more strategic and long-term, which really excites me. I’m actually trying it myself and aiming to build a €150 bankroll on the side. I’ve done it before, starting with just freerolls, but I cashed out too early. I probably should’ve kept playing and building it up.

Now, I’m giving it another shot—let’s see how it goes!
