I like to keep my poker money separate from my real-life finances. It gives me a sense of accomplishment when I’m able to build my bankroll successfully.

What about you?
 
I have a budget for poker and other casino games. If I lose it all, I don't play until I refill my budget. If I win, I will replenish my previous losses. I never use the money to play Poker or any casino games that I generally set aside to manage my expenses.
 
Separating funds is not optional if you are serious. I once mixed everything together, thinking I could track everything mentally. It was the biggest mistake I made. And when I started separating my accounts, everything made more sense. Mixing both just invites unnecessary pressure, and poker already has enough tension. So, separating your funds is the best.
 
I try to. I have a separate checking account just for poker. When it's gone, it's gone until next deposit. Mixing life money with poker money is a disaster waiting to happen. You don't need much, just a clear line.
 
Yes, I do. I have a budget for entertainment, which includes subscriptions for streaming services, movies, poker and other casino games. I never go over the limit. If the funds are deployed, I will wait until I refill the next month.
