Time for a change

actully what you just explained happens to alot of people including myself. Its very common and the mentality of it sounds stupid but when you are at the table you dont think it through and afterwards when you actully think about it you are like "wow that was dumb". I'am on a very very long break myself and dont know if I will ever play again, one of the reasons I dont post much anymore is because im not playing so no reason to post.

Im actully playing Magic again and got back with some guys on magic the gathering online that I havent talked to in over a year. Maybe one day I will play poker but it got to the point where I couldnt stand playing anymore. Like someone else said hearing all the sucess stories on here then watching my bankroll go lower and lower didnt help, was I jealous....YEP. Did I wish you all would start losing? of course not but it really was depressing.

I agree take a break and re-read your poker books, watch some games online or whatever and rethink what you want from poker. I mean do you want to just play, because if you just want to play you should just sit at lowest limits possible or lowest sit and go's or whatever and play for pure enjoyment of the game. If you want to make money then you really have to sit down and think if you have the mental stability for it. I dont, thats why im not playing, one day I might but for now if I play its just like walking down the street handing out $20's to everyone I see.

Thanks for all the advice guys, I really can relate to n1kitas and brians situation, once I lost a bunch of money I went to a cash game to try and get it back. We all know how those end for me! Luckily I still have a decent roll (In comparison to what I started with) so I guess Christmas Break is as good as any to take a poker break as well.

I don't know if I will be at the freeroll tonight, I might be driving back to Orlando.
