Hi guys, I thought I would share something that has helped me with mt discipline.
I am now withdrawing 50% of each winning bet after commision, thus builing the bank and taking funds....seems to have focused me on the actual goal. Any negatives/positives?

Nothing tedious about withdrawing £9 to account...gets it back to feeling like real money!

Sorry sta it was meant as a serious question.  I too have trouble balancing bank growth v taking profits.  I posted a similar question some time ago and as I recall there may not be an optimum - it depends on your goals.

It is of course difficult to do both (grow bank and take profits) and comes down to a personal preference.

At the moment I withdraw a small amount if my bank is above a certain level.

I feel it keeps me more focused, as on here money doesnt feel like money if you know what I mean, just withdrew another £35 from horse race 15.00 Leicester, nice to see bank grow whilst knowing that withdrawals are being done.

sounds like it works for you so cant see a problem except the question of if you have a bad run(and we all have them)do you wait till you"ve recovered you loses before taking 50% out again i.e you"er down £200 after 3 bets you"er 4th bet wins you £100 do you still take £50 out ? g/l

Yeah Post man I would take the 50% out even after a losing few bets, never bet more than 10% of bank so bank will never be dry.
As only 5 withdrawals allowed I will with draw every 3 hours now but keep a record.

At the moment I`m withdrawing once a week, but I am thinking about taking all above some level every day (if lucky :))
Question is: Are they gonna charge me after to many withdrawals in a month or I can take as often as I like?

Careful you dont pi55 your bank off with too many transactions in a day. You could use the Aussie wallet to 'save' your winnings in then withdraw at the end of the day/week?
