An anonymous poll to see what typically is your daily bankroll being brought to the Craps table. Being anonymous should get more honest answers.

Further non- anonymous discussion ... bankroll should not exceed a days pay or a weeks pay?

Being a "regular" player living in a Casino town tends to increase or decrease a persons bankroll VS an occasion player that has limited Craps table time due to travel being required.

Since I barely play craps, I will stay out of the poll.

For the other questions...I think it really depends on how often you play to help determine your roll. If you play a lot, it shouldn't be a week's pay, obv.

If you play at local casinos, your avg. bankroll should go down because you're probably playing more often, but you can up it for "special occasions" like Vegas, if you wish.

Daily, I take only somewhat more than I feel I might lose with bad luck, but many many times EV.

I have a bankroll for gambling that is about 7 times what I have as a bankroll for the day. What I mean is, in the course of a year, if I lost it all, the amount would be more than I emotionally can accept easily, but is actually affordable. And for the daily use, I take cash. If I was the kind of gambler that took out markers, I probably would take out the same amount and resolve not to take more on a daily basis.

I also have a replenishment rate that is a percentage of easily liquidatable total assets [excludes home equity]. If replenishment is more than losses, this is a good indicator all is well.
