This will be harsh, but brief. As best I can tell (not only from this thread, but from all your previous posts too):

1. You are not a good poker player (and probably not even an average one).
2. You have no bankroll management skills or self control.
3. You are losing money you can't afford to lose.

Add that up, and you get:

You have a gambling problem.

Yes, the very obvious and very correct answer is that you should quit forever. Immediately. Don't even wait until you lose whatever you have left online. Withdraw any money you have left and uninstall all the poker software you have on your computer. Cancel your poker magazine subscriptions and sell your poker books. Stop visiting this site and every other site that you read that has anything to do with gambling.

Get a new hobby that doesn't involve the potential to lose money, and get your life back on track.

GL.

Thanks for every one of the responses...and for being honest. I think now I have enough sense to at least take a much needed break from playing. If I decide to come back and play some more and continue losing, then I guess it is time to call it quits. Thats all I have to say for now, thanks again for the feedback and I will see everyone on the other side.

Sounds like you need much more than a break. Really seek help and hit the responsible gambling tabs at all of you sites and then uninstall all of them.

Which any true addict will then try to put online to gamble with.

+e/v for recognizing you have a problem

-e/v for still wondering what the hell to do about it.

Quit playing poker and send an email to all the sites you visit asking them to ban your account for a minimum of one year, preferably forever.

Seek and attain help, from a professional or group session setting.

I'm sorry if I'm a bit late making this post, but the latest post said play blackjack so I figured I'd toss in my
