Hey dawg, all flaming aside...why do you feel compelled to play at such high limits?

I've no idea as to the truth of your claims and can only look at myself for comparison, but I am financially comfortable and could easily afford to bet higher but am content just to play the level I play at.

For me winning is important but I don't "need" to win; I simply enjoy the experience, the endorphin rush of betting.

I find I have increased my average bet size over time so there is probably some dynamic at play that I don't understand, but the bottom line is I could bet more but don't have the desire to.

So, why not bet less than you do?

We've all read tales of how whales get flensed and deboned over time by the casinos; what makes YOU immune?
