What is a "bankroll"?

A bankroll is the total amount of money or chips that a player has set aside for playing poker. It represents the funds a player is willing to risk in the game. Managing a bankroll is important for players to ensure they do not spend more than they can afford to lose. A player’s bankroll can grow with wins or shrink with losses, and it is often used as a way to track one’s financial progress in the game. It is essential for maintaining long-term success and avoiding financial trouble while playing poker.
