| Good or Bad All, I only get to play poker on Saturday and Sunday due to working abroad Mon - Fri. My question to the forum is do you think this is a good or bad thing. Like everyone else some weekends the poker gods hate me and other weekends they love me. I read on here all the time that people should take a break when all seems against them, but at the same time when everything is going for you surely it is a good thing to carry on. I do not have this luxury as when i head to work that is it until the following Saturday. My own feeling is that it keeps me keen/fresh and saves me when things are going wrong or thinking I am some great player when the good times hit. What do you think?

| Actually the weekends are when you are going to find the most fish online. This presents a two edges to you. On one hand, their play is going to suck so you have a good chance to really increase your bankroll. On the other hand; because their play sucks they will stay with anything so be prepared for some stupid, bad beats. |

| re: Good or Bad poker I only play online poker a couple of days a week at best and almost never on the weekend. That way, if I lose money one night I have at least a 5 day break until I try again. Most of the time I bounce back. |

| Probably good. If/when you give up work you generally end up playing too much. Your mind finds it hard to fully switch off and be "normal" again. The fact you have 5 days off (from poker) is probably a good thing. If you win a fairly big tourney for me the elation isnt really to do with the money it is more to do with, "great, I actually have an excuse not to play for a few weeks". You probably feel you want to play more. I remember feeling the same before i ditched the desk job, but for the reasons stated above, dont feel like you're missing out, because simply you're not. You're probably a lot more rounded as a consequence. (It would probably take most poker players a good month or so to fully get their mind off poker...and that is never a good thing) And, you might also win the Sunday Million , Good Luck to you EDIT :- god I sound like some addiction therapist, lol Last edited by PreciousLor : 10th August 2006 at 2:47 PM. |
