You haven't understood my point but it's ok.
Thing is having your visa at reception rather than in your pocket is the very catalyst to your ban, so in fact it's the crux of the matter as opposed to nit-picking.
What's more you introduced your story as "very far-fetched", people who don't immediately accept very far-fetched stories are not in fact cynical mate, just normal.
Ok so going back to the beginning
- you say it's to step away if ur stacked. What does/did that achieve? Nothing right?
Highlighting your question/point, what does it achieve, supposedly nothing - to which I replied
I'm not immune to tilt. I used to get 500 from the cashier, (max buy in 250 I think?) then if I needed to top up my stack to max buy-in I would be able to without leaving the table. Back then I wasn't patient, I would lose a big hand and then try and jump straight back in to the action - my thought process was that if I had to physically get up and off the gaming floor to get more money - this would give me some time to de-tilt and not spew hundreds more off shortly after.
So I may have waffled on a bit but there you go - I implied that when I get stacked I tilt - so keeping my belongings off the gaming floor I have to leave the room, get up and hopefully by the time I'm back I am ready to play poker without tilting away my bankroll.
To which you replied
Point 2 regarding tilt and a monkey in cash is a total different scenario tho right? If you have no cash only visa you are always gonna physically leave the table. Just trying to understand why going to reception makes all the difference.
So yes I lost my money (250, topped up until I lost the other 250 spare so 500). My bank card is in my bag and I decided to keep it there for the reasons I said above - if I managed to lose £500 (2 stacks) then in my opinion I need a break from the table, but with my eagerness to win it back ASAP, I normally would have gone to the cashier, taken out a bag and sat back in, all within a couple of minutes and lose another buy in if I was that badly on tilt.
