Here are some ways to reduce risk, make your online poker experience safer and hassle-free:

• You should treat poker as a source of entertainment, not as a source of income.
You should make frequent withdrawals from your account when you win.
• You should restrict yourself from playing poker with your savings and money you need to pay your bills. Only use the money you can spare to lose.
• You should not try to compensate for your losses by playing higher stakes.
• You should set deposit limits to make sure you don’t deposit more than you can spare to neglect.
• You should avoid playing when you’re feeling low, depressed, tired or impulsive.
• You should try to maintain a healthy balance between poker and other daily activities.

• Look out for your bankroll:

One of the most important things to consider is that you don’t sit in the games that are higher than your bankroll. Generally, the aim should be to have at least 100+ buy-ins for the stakes you play, however, this also depends on the structure and the format of the game.
For example, if you play tournaments with a large field or games that are quick-structured such as turbos, then you need to have a larger bankroll.

• Move down in stakes when necessary:

If are down on your bankroll, try to move down in stakes because this will help you build you bankroll once again and in a steady manner. Although it’s natural to hesitate in doing so, it does help you in the long run.

• Don’t chase losses and avoid playing while tilted:

If you feel that you’re tilted and negative mindset is getting a hold of you, then try to be away from the felts as soon as you can. Take a break because your bankroll is way more important than your need to keep playing. You should never try to chase your losses.

• Study your game:

A smart way to get better at your game is to review your hands and analyse your strategy. You can view your game history under the ‘History’ tab in your dashboard once you login on the PokerBaazi website. You should do this regularly to keep evolving your game.
