Often. When I lose everything. With the nuts. When the opponent reaches. On all the tables. And more often on the river. I can not play for many days (weeks).

Such thoughts for the poker player is a common thing)) It does not matter how many times you fell, it's important that you got up one more time!

there are always those moments, especially when we are in a losing streak prolonged.in those moments it is better to take time out of the tables to get reacquainted with our best poker.


not to go down and continue studying and looking for variants to improve

I've never thought about that yet. I just feel, I know that poker is made for me, or I'm made for poker. I am pleased to play this game. Play against others. Win.

I quit playing from April 2011 until December 2016. Black Friday caused me to quit playing and now I'm back into playing most days. I only play recreationally though so its not like quitting a job or anything.

Sometimes you visit your thoughts when you merge your bankroll, but time passes and you forget about it, you play, you do not have to pour money, there are also freerolls in which you can win a good amount, and there is also a desire to win a big cash prize , why not. Especially there is a desire to play with famous poker players, or to win a ticket to a certain country and participate in a live, which I have never done before.

Honestly, it's been a lot of hard times, even now ... not helping my book at all. I can apply all the poker science ... I do not even catch a break in a tournament. :) In the past, I had a 6 month period in which I wanted to quit poker. But I did not, and I do not think I'll ever do it.:fight:

Just quit that unregulated site full of cheats and bots, ACR. Over their pathetic algorithm that rewards the worst hand 96% of the time.Bots, cheats and their own players that never lose, hooray for unregulated poker.

After losing the next deposit, I think to leave the game. But after the tilt has passed, I return

YES! I did, several times! Because when you're dumb and can't take care of your bankroll and you're bleeding money that's not even yours, and giving up time that you should allow to work, you must think you're not made for it and that you should simply give it up!Now thankfully, I am more of a recreational player, poker is not a priority anymore, and I launched a challenge to reach 2k$ starting from scratch and I'm already up to 100$ in a month.
Come check it out guys, I would for sure use some advice and support : https://www.cardschat.com/forum/poker-goals-challenges-wins-46/ff2586-2k-2018-challenge-364135/

I believe we have all gone through this, there are times when we want to stop everything. I did not play for a while, but then I came back.
I think it is phase, but who likes the game always ends up coming back.

I am seriously considering quitting poker. I'm probably going to get slated for this but I'm serious in believing that it's fixed I'm sick to the back teeth of getting one outered on the river. It's not even funny any more it's a total joke. In the last week along I've lost hands with full houses around 7-8 times being one outered for huge pots playing cash with 95.5% equity on the turn totally ridiculous I've just had enough. This isn't sour grapes this is really just a joke. Why would the site cheat when they are a multi million dollar company ppl ask action flops all the time variance my arse !!!!!!! Furious :mad::mad:

Nah I'd never quit poker I don't think I could even if I wanted to the cards are just in my nature. I love all card games.
52 cards 52 weeks in the year
4 suits 4 seasons
13 values for the 13 lunar cycles
12 face cards 1 for each month
add every value of them and its 365
if its in the stars its in the cards

I thought about taking a break from poker, but never thought about quieting poker. I always say I going to take a break from the game, but I never do. I like playing to much. I try different ways to play hands or different betting styles when I'm bored with poker. The one thing that I can never get used to is losing. I lose a lot more than I win in this game. I hope to find a better way to play and learn to fold more hands. But I will never quiet poker. I like the game too much.:D
