Taking a break

He doesn't have a problem, cept for me yoinking his money like i yoink my grandmas purse. But, you are running good right now GTdawg, and I know you have had you're far share of craptastic poker, but not on the scale that Mayhem just had. He probably built that roll up for months, and to lose it in one day really kicks you hard. I think I can say this because I know where you are in your walk of poker life, I was there at one point and felt this same way.

I think you may be confusing bdawg31 and GTdawg. Both dawgs, yes, but the same person, no.

In response to my post above, where I commented on bdawg's lack of willpower, I owe him an apology... He has since reminded me of something during my one month break that I had (honestly) completely forgotten about. At the time, I asked him to not even talk to me about poker - no HHs, no daily updates, etc. I think the reason I forgot about this is because quickly during my break I realized that I could talk about and think about poker with no problems, but BEFORE I started my month off, I thought I was going to need to go completely cold turkey and not even think about it.

I was talking about GTDawg thinking about whether or not he would quit cold turkey if he ran into a bad spot. He said he wouldn't quit, but I was saying a BIG hit like that is hard to recover from. It really messes with your head. And your confidence...it definately takes a break and goes elsewhere.
