&#x2B;  it is much more convenient -   As is human nature, similar to a charge card, u r much more likely to forego discipline if u don&#x27;t have to fork over cash each week.I have books that do it both ways and even though u have to be more disciplined I prefer the set limit (1000 for me)

Been doing that exact amount for over 20 years. It's just not worth it to either one of us to find time to meet up for 500.

It's not going to break either one us to carry that amount to the next week.

You both need to find your comfort zone on the amount is all.

I don&#x27;t like it.Are you disciplined enough to stop if you hit -550? 600? more?  It&#x27;s easy to think you can bet your way back below that -500 mark, but that can be dangerous.

no brainer. I settle at 2k either way. if you don't have discipline then it doesn't matter if you have a threshold or not.

I enjoy the settle amount because then I don't always have to worry about the book. that gets taxing in a busy lifestyle

I have a threshold of wins and losses for each book... You never want them to owe you too much,, as well as you owing them... Its better to have multiple books... It pays for itself over time because it allows you to line shop...
