i quit

Treat yourself man. Go out and buy some stuff for yourself. Taking breaks off of poker and enjoying life is what everyone should do.

you got the flu ez.

i totally know exactly how you feel. i have the tendency to be a super focus machine and play almost 20k sessions sometimes (normal sessions are at least 5k+ hands haha). As a result, when i start playing badly, i focus so hard on fixing my leaks that my brain eventually just wears out.

Even though poker is fun and addictive, it's a ton of work to improve and play well. give your brain a break and do something really fun . I like playing text twist and starcraft!! (but i tend to be a focus monkey w/ starcraft as well oooops hahaha)

Take a vacation, go somewhere nice for a week and just relax.

wow day, sick post wish I could play so much like that, my goal this month was to play 5k hands everyday, and I am not doing it =[

text twist is awesome fwiw

YO MAN YOU GOTTA LEARN THE HUSTLE MAN

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL AND IM LIKE YO I GOTTA STAY MOTIVATED CAUSE THESE COWARDS NEED TO GET STOMPED BOTTOM LINE.

when you Sitting in front of your PC, your eyes are focused to the same distance (to the monitor) for a long time. The muscles in the eyeball contracts and stayed in that position for a long time. This will cause discomfort to the eyes. In the long run, it will create vision problems.

Same applies to the muscles in your neck, back, arms etc. The consequence of sitting in front of the computer without moving for a long time could be quite disasterous. The symptoms may not be apparent because they "grow" slowly. It takes months or years before you realize you need medical help.

In order to prevent this, it is good to get away from the PC after 2 hours in front of it. Do some simple exercise. Look at objects far away from you etc. It will do you good.

go to the gym and activate ur life if ur not doing much besides poker
also move down a little in limits for a while and play vs monkeys, its not as mentally tough

just a couple of simple things that probably will make u feel better

I know what you mean. I have regular headaches since I started playing bigger session over night (which is the most profitable of course.

I'd suggest to take a week off sometime and just go out for a walk and don't sit infront of the 2x30" lcd whole day (like I do
