But you're starting off on the right foot. Ask the right questions - try to implement advice - put the hours in - and learn from your mistakes. Get out of your mind the concept of stop losses and daily goals. There's just too much variance to have things like that. Go to as many casinos as you can to find the right games for your bankroll and build a list of casinos you want to play at that will give you the edge you're comfortable with. As your bankroll increases other games will come into play and so you can start moving from one shop to another more quickly. Your bankroll size is really the determining factor and the level of risk you're happy to accept. Also pop into The Gambler's Book Club and give Howard my regards from the UK (if he's still alive). You'll find it to be a mine of useful information.....Also, as others have said, get a current copy of CBJN...
