But I have no intention of doing this, very rarely do I take the mood to play cash so with this in mind I only play now and again when the mood takes me. If I play way above my level etc then of course I'm risking going bust, in fact I've been close to doing just that on a few occassions. But what is bust for a recreational player like me? As I mentioned previously, I started 18 months ago with a £20 deposit, have never re deposited and have withdrew probably close on 5 figures. Please don't regard this as a trumpet blowing mission because it certainly Isn't, to me it's just a bit of fun and if I can win a bit along the way great. I fully understand all the stuff Jez, Doc etc have said and wouldn't dispute any of it as I'm well aware that these guys know their stuff. But myself and probably Betfly who I've played with many times are here for different reasons to the serious guys who need to follow all the rules etc as it is their bread and butter, whereas we can take risks with really not much to lose if it goes belly up.

With regard to % of roll to sit down with, I've sat with my entire roll many times, and, yes I know that is dumb, but as I already mentioned, just a bit of fun and if i lose it then no harm done.
