How to get motivated to play? (serious topic)

for every hour you dont play poker now, you will spend 5 times more, working on a job you hate after 10 years. think about this

ask yourself why you play.

is perisie just a huge troll or what?

i get motivated when i tell myself that i'm going to play good today and win some money

Sounds like you have too much money. Go spend some, then look at your bank account for motivation.

perisie is so fucking wierd

if you play a donkament while you grind you have to grind til you bust out

haha

I find waking up in the morning instead of the afternoon gets my fired up and ready to play much more than otherwise.

hahahaha i couldn't help but laugh :D

You can temporarily generate motivation by running propbets with friends based on volume and/or profit over small periods of time. If it's over a longer period of time someone will probably get really far behind and give up. It actually works pretty well if you have a competitive nature, regardless of how much you put up.

GENIUS.
totally forgot how well this shit works. need motivation right now too. Rush is gonna get a nice br fucking the next few weeks.

i was thinking of having a propbet for volume amongst other players(300 each or more then loser doesnt get his money back etc). might help with hand volume woes. havent played this month 35k hands only, breakeven total this month meh

Basically sums it up.

look at boob thread and see what money can potentially get you - well potentially

tldr, smoke weed + listen to music = success!

if you are really ego driven this doesn't apply but ya otherwise 100% spot on

eh, i just stop being a whiney little bitch and be extremely grateful for what i've been given and DO WORK.

shit getting paid a nice hourly ain't so bad...

pick an expensive addiction boom u become a god of poker.

personally i prefer the hooookers.

seirously tho, being really poor helped me alot.
