    if you are not enjoying playing have a good length of time off.
    i have played a lot less lately due to the fact i have not enjoyed it so much.(meaning i keep getting sucked out on and sulk)

    just play a couple of games/sessions a week and you will soon be itching to get back into it again.

    This isn't good...........

    It wont take long before you're itching for a game though.

    Take time out from playing, but read a book or something, and you'll be cHomping at the bit to get back into the game and try out the new ideas you have.

    If you want, PM me, I'll send you a book, and you'll be back as soon as you've read the first 4 chapters ;)

    What book is that DOHHHHHHHHH if you don't mind me asking ?

    Or is it a secret ?
  • edited February 2011
    Have a good break if you need and if you really want to play but also don't want to at the same time (if your a grinder) then maybe just open a cheapy tourney and have a 'fun' game instead :)

    Hi mate ive played you alot over the last few months.

    Don't leave for good, just take a break.

    I got like you and was getting fed up with it, so I play alot less now.

    Take say a week away and I bet by then you will be itching to get back.

    Ps. get away from 8nl if you can!!!! It will drive you nuts otherwise!!
  • edited February 2011
    Yeah i've also seen you a fair bit on the 2/4 tables. You seem like a solid player.

    Its probably to much play and having a seemingly bad run , which you know will take ages to back - thats where I am right now - and It sucks

    definatley time for a brk I,d say - and see how you feel in a week - read Dohhhs book and you,ll be back enjoying it again before you know it, but just maybe cut it down a bit

    Any chance you can tell us what the book is Dohh or PM me - Any sort of help right now wiould be appreciated

    Good luck Gibb! We have played a few times and you seem like a good player, take some time out and come back  fresh and de tilted :)

    Your namesake,

    playing at the lower limits can get you like this especially if you are on a bad run.
    seen you on the nl4 tables where wild variance is a way of life!!
    taking a break is a good idea, get things in perspective, and come back fighting.
