Really Enjoying Myself...

edited June 2010 in Poker Chat

The last month and especially last week i was playing everyday, trying to grind up with a low bankroll and seemed to be losing every race. Tbh i was just gettin p****d off with the game, I was blaming luck, the site and the "donkeys"

So i came onto the forum , didnt post anything but noticed somebody else pretty much in the same boat.
He was advised to take a break so i decided this was what i should do.

I came back yesterday after about 5 days break, fresh as a daisy and playing some good poker. Took down the Orfordable deepstack and just generally enjoying the game.

Basically what i'm saying is , if poker is feeling like a chore..just chill out, take a break. The game is still going to be here if you take a break for a few days.

OVER AND OUT

    Nice post Sam, Im currently on a month break, poker takes it's toll after a while unfortunatley and in the end did affect my health hence the break - what is great is that within this forum are a lot of great people and the PM's and MS N messages I received just backed that up. My advice to you is to use this forum more m8 - and any problems you encounter people here will be more than glad to help!! WD on your win tonight m8 and gl to you on the tables :)

    Nice one.

    But remember to enjoy it even when you dont take down a tourny. Variance will even itself over a year or even a few years.

    Just keep playing, keep smiling and remember at the end of the day it gets dark.......err i mean at the end of the day its still just a game!

    well said jaegerbomb.
    When it doesnt come a game anymore,  you start chasing money, which isnt fun :(

    I have took a breal for a good whole there as had few family problems and a wedding in 3 weeks, so cant even concentrate,lol

    But i have had to even put 20 quid in and see if i can build it up playing low stakes.
    After joining this forum as well i have enjoyed it more and wanna play.

    good luck :)
