Yeah I find it hard to decide. But this how it's worked out lately.
I usually keep a few smaller notes in shirt or pants pocket. That means I don't keep diving for the wallet in the first place.
Carry a fabric wallet slung Around neck under shirt, sometimes on chest sometimes under arm. Cost about $20 in aus. Very comfortable and doesn't require a large pocket. Really only keep my current wad of 100k or 50k notes in it plus one card - cash passport or credit card.
Always keep passport and cash/tc's in secure box at reception if possible.
When moving between hotels/guesthouse I then use one backpack for all valuables and don't let it go. Even so I keep credit card and wallet around neck.
