Of course, I am 100% sure that a vacation is needed. I think everyone needs a vacation in this life. If a person plays poker professionally, then for him it is like a job, and from any work it is necessary to rest, gain energy and strength, in order to be able to work further. There are things in life on which we spend our energy, and there are things from which we receive energy, for example: outdoor recreation, fishing, a trip to the sea or ocean and many others. Every person needs a reboot and recharging with energy, and weekends are usually not enough for this; at least a couple of weeks are needed, maybe more.
