poker crossroads

[BrianSwa]

yea I could deal with break even.... As for what jimmy said like penguin said I expected some of the shit, again though he is free to make his opinion.

good advice though and I appriciate it, I plan on doing alot of reading and learning. As for this forum, I have been here awhile and there are tons of great advice on it, doing forum searches now on past articles. Might be suprised but Lou posted some great stuff back in the day that I have re-found and its actully pretty good.

plan on reading alot on the hand histories and mentally saying what I would do different then scrolling down to see what the local experts here think. This forum is a very good outlet to improve your game and there are some really great players on it. I know I have bashed the forum in the past but honestly its one of the best outlets to learn poker in my opinion, not kissing ass just stating facts. I have gone through this in the past on this forum and not listened to the advice becuase I dont think I really wanted to improve, this time though I honestly do which is the only reason I made this post, I honestly want to improve.

As for just quiting and spending time with family like Jimmy said, I dont think there is a need to right now. My family is very well taken care of and I can balance playing with kid, playing poker and "playing" with wife very well. If it got to point like it did in past where playing was all I was doing yea then I agree its time to quit but as long as I can distinguish poker as a hobby and dont let it control life there is no problem with playing "when" I have time.
