LikeASet will be no more. Just not able to man up and sustain my A game throughout my sessions. Bad beats and stupid plays unecessarily stress me out. Cashed out my last $1000. I'm mentally putting too much weight on my own shoulders and the stress is making me play poorly too much of the time.
I have learned some good things like the enforcement of the value of a dollar, and no such thing as an easy buck. I think it would be much easier if poker income wasn't the main source of my income and if I had a lot in the bank first that way it wouldn't be that stressful and feel like such a grueling job.
Good thing is that I'm most likely getting my old waiter job back. Just going to continue finishing up my BS, working part time waiter, and saving up to buy a new desktop to play STARCRAFT :D. Also in a few months when I build up a lot of cash, I plan on playing live poker, I got a lot of live poker casino resources at my disposal, including Reno and a super soft 18+ casino. I've played live a few times already and it's super fun and easy, so far of course.
Will still linger around LP of course giving my 2 cents and taking part of the trollaments.
Feel free to laugh at my face if you ever see me on pokerstars again.

People who are brash and not image focused, people who are the opposite of sycophantic are maybe stereotypically the most trustworthy. - Steal City | |

LOL... Are you a while male Caucasian born on November 23, 1989 as well? This is EXACTLY what happened to me. Poker was my income and after playing for a living for 7 months without any backup bank I couldn't handle it anymore. Cashed out my last $1000 and got a job waiting tables again as I am very good at it. And now going back to school soon. |

You'll be back. This is just a break until you can get into a position where you view poker as a game you play for fun as a hobby instead of as a way to make money.
Until then, good luck in life. |
