This is my goodbye to poker and LP.
I already quit 2 months ago and I just wanted to thank this community for playing a major roll in my 3 year professional poker career. In the process making me a nice chunk of money . I would be nowhere pokerwise without you guys <3.
For the last 18 months I've been bored whenever I've played, often feeling down even when I've ran OK/good. A really bad run of variance put me over the edge, and I'm thankful for it. Emotionally forcing me to chose another path. Which has literally unpaused my life, I've made up my mind to educate myself and hopefully I'll be able to eventually better this world and the life of the people living in it. Something that I've discovered to be the key for long lasting happiness, at least for me. Poker made me feel secluded and somewhat of a tangent in this world. Not a part of it, not contributing, merely existing in it. Life is short and happiness is the only thing that matters, wherever you find it. Being a part of humanity and bettering other peoples' life is what it's all about.
This is a simplified and compressed goodbye note but I still wanted to say thank you and goodbye to all of you guys. You've made all the difference to my poker life. Quitting poker and starting a new chapter in my life has made me feel better than I've felt in a long time. I wish for all the happiness for you guys. Whatever you do, I hope you lead a happy life and in the process can make other people happy and overall leave a positive imprint.
I've left €40 on my pstars acc to play if I feel like it, so some of you micro stakes guys might see me on the tables. I might even check in on LP now and then. See you later and gl, Liquid Poker! =)

Money = physical comforts/pleasures = happiness
Emotional fulfillment kinda comes with money after a certain age because females are money grubbing whores/security nits |

Good luck finding happiness! My life is much better since I quit trying to pursue poker full time. Now I only play live a few times a month in my local area and spend 2-3 weeks a year in Vegas around the WSOP.
I'm working as a software developer now and I highly recommend programming/coding if you are looking for something to educate yourself on. It is pretty rewarding and you get a nice sense of accomplishment when you solve a tough problem or complete a project. |
