Many of my columns deal with money management and being a responsible player who makes the best decisions in the casino. My columns are not just ideas that I write about once a week. I honestly practice what I preach. However, I am only human and sometimes I make the mistake of not following my own advice and deviating from my own personal rules. Since I also preach about being honest with yourself when you make a mistake, I thought I would go a step further and share with you my recent experience.
