? about books

I know the answer may very, but what is too much money to have in one book? 5, 10, 15K? I'm just scared of another BetonSports incident or something similar where you lose your money.

i'm always a bit worried about a situation like betonsports even with the books that are rated A+

for practice though i have my bankroll distributed in several accounts and also withdraw often even though i get dinged in fees

also i never have my entire gambling bankroll deposited into accounts. it varies from 20% to 40%

Simple.. an amount you can afford to lose.
