How do you carry your bankroll? (1 Viewer)

[swh]

I play in different cash games once or twice a week, and generally carry 30-50 bills. In my non-poker life I never use cash for anything, I usually use Apple Pay, and keep my ID and a couple credit cards in my phone case.

I usually either just have a loose wad in my pocket, or use a binder clip. I'd like something nicer, but it seems like most money clips are geared toward carrying 5-10 bills.

What do you guys use?

I've been using binder clips for well over a decade; haven't found anything I like better for carrying a lot of bills.

When going to the casino I put $3k deep in each of my front pockets in $100’s. I just fold them over.

Everything else is in my jacket or hoodie.

Smaller home games $3k in just one pocket.

Normal life I carry my wallet that I keep $40 in and use my CC to pay for just about everything.

I seldom put cash in my jacket/hoodie since there's a non-zero chance I could accidentally leave that behind, whereas there is effectively no chance I leave the poker room without my pants.

I've had this titanium money clip for years and love it. It holds a single bill tight and expands pretty well. Durable as hell too. Always keep the cash in the front pocket.

I front carry may wallet. It can hold about 5k in 100s before it gets a bit unwieldy. I try not to bring more than that so it works out for me. It has 2 cash areas, I usually leave it in the deeper pocket.

Front pocket separate from my decoy wallet.

Occasionally I will do a game of LCR (GREAT USE OF CHIPS BTW) and that takes a lot of ones. For that I use an old neoprine AOL branded cell phone case that clips on my belt and I literally stuff it with $200 in ones. We use those for side bets in LCR.

$50 and up for a money clip is pricey, but if it does it's job.... I use a Coach money clip that is probably 20 years old.

I might look into this Viper, though:

Same here. Works very well.

I guess you know that ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ = Come and take (them)

On a different note, in (most of) Europe, we have the bills (500E = $575 in one paper banknote) but we don't have the money

PCF banner ads are already offering me additional options.

In the United States, Anyone with Molan Labe on their money clip is probably going to Be ready for any one that makes such an attempt. Just like Leonidas was armed and ready.

So you've given up playing SOHE?

My neighbor's brother cashed out $200k from his WSOP ME winnings and just carried it around in a grocery bag for a day. Balla!

I knew the Canadian dollar was down a bit, but that's ridiculous.

I 'm prety sure .
Leonidas, btw, was talking about the arms themselves (that's what he was asked to surrender).
This phrase is an archetype of Lacedaemonian short-talk. ΜΟΛΩΝ is actually the past participle of the verb to come/arrive, and ΛΑΒΕ the imperative of the verb to take so "[once] arrived, take".
Spartans were proverbially quiet guys. They didn't like conversations.

Anything more is too balla for me.

 

[WedgeRock]

You guys have convinced me...

I always understood it to literally translate to: Having come, take.

Meaning: Come and get it.

In the front pocket, for safe keeping among other things.

My opponents carry my bankroll...

Take that how you would like... either I bring it and they leave with it... or I'm cocky af and am claiming that my opponents are human atms.

Yes, here in the United States the phrase is popular with individuals who support our 2nd Amendment right to bear arms. Supporters use it as not so obvious comment directed at the government or groups that favor gun control. Sorta the same idea. If the want the arms, come and take them if you can.

As another famous spartan said in a typical laconic response.....”IF”
