Bankroll

In online poker, "br" is short for "bankroll," which is the amount of money a person has to play in the game. People typically calculate the size of their br by factoring in the level of poker play and the number of buy-ins required.

Managing your br is a crucial aspect of poker because it helps you weather prolonged droughts and not fall into complete ruin. For example, if you are a casual player, your br should only come from funds you have reserved for recreation use.

Also, poker players typically do not buy into games for more than 5% of their br. And if they lose more than 10% of their br in a single game, they should quit that game.

Example

I always limit my br when playing Texas Hold'em

Contemplating if you have enough in your br
