After a few years of grinding up the limits, I have come to the realization that online poker is definitely not the right path in my life for now.
The urge to constantly be playing midstakes underrolled has taken its toll on my mind and soul, and the disapointment that I have constantly put myself through has made me a very unhappy person.
I've been putting alot of unfair pressure on myself to win alot of money, and have forgotten why I even liked this game in the first place, its become a tedious grind and battle with myself that I can't handle anymore.
I'm going to play the big tournaments on saturday and sunday and call it quits on monday the 29th, taking what little dignity I have left and pursuing a job I am more fit for.
I want to thank LP for everything, teaching me the right way to play and the support I recieved from many of the players, especially DooMeR, Raszi, Fazi, day[9], Robinson and cro)deadman.
I still have a few outstanding debts to a couple players in the community, and I want them to know that I will not forget about them and will pay them back as soon as I can.
My birthday is coming up next week (october 3rd), and I'm getting a new car (my fath,er is buying for me) as well as starting a new job at Atlantic Broadband (nov 1st). (local cable company)
I plan to work there until spring of next year, and then moving to a tropical climate and hopefully restarting online poker with a proper bankroll for atleast nl100 - nl200. (4-10k)
During this break I hope to find more stability and balance in my life.
I'll still be using LP from time to time and continuing to coach my students on my spare time, as well as having home games once a month and visiting the casino every 2-3 months for a weekend of poker.
my first student was deadman, now fenner and bmjr02 and dmcc2462 are my students **edit on ppl asking who my students were
In no means is this a goodbye, more like a cya soon and I wish you all the best of luck.
GL everyone,
Ryan (DReaMe) (NeillyAA)

I didn't realise you were putting so much pressure on yourself.
By the way you handled money I thought you were just in it for the thrills
anyway try to hold on to your words gl |

You have outstanding debts...
but you're buying a new car
have some integrity and forego an option or two or even get a less expensive model and honor your obligations. |

^^my first thoughts. seriously dude, you go from saying you're going to pay people back ASAP, then you say you're buying a new car. don't lie. |

this is why so many people say to keep poker just as a hobby, especially if you play micro/low stakes :<
