money management with a local

Hey all, I see a lot of threads on here regarding money management. I'm curious to know if u all keep it at 5% or do it differently when usin a local??? For me I set aside 220 a check that I can afford to lose. if I love a game at begginin of week (week goes from tues to monday) ill put the whole 200 on it n if lose call it quits. If just like the game usually do 50 on it or so. And if get up then take half of winnings to save and other half on total of 220 that I can afford to lose. Just curious how u guuys do it if u only gotta pay out or collect once a week

True. But I do it weeklt cause I know I can afford to lose the 220 a week. If I win on week then I don't carry over to next week I use the money on other trhings or in savings account it goes. Maybe I'm dumb for doin like this? I donno

dunno either, i had certain fundamentals in my entire life: one of them was NEVER EVERY gambling with my own money... i started my entire 'punting' career with a won gift certificate from a local 'sportsbook', sth similar to canadian pro line... and got my starting poker bankroll from an e-pokerschool...

i don't think that i'll ever go broke... dunno if i could resist... but it feels weird to bet with money that i had to work 'physical' for... and my girl would prolly kill me... or giving me trouble until i'd hang myself
