Ever Considered Quitting Poker?

[Gallarado777]

every day I think about quitting poker after I lose with a strong hand against weak players, but then I calm down and continue playing

Quitting poke ??? No . But taking a break ?? Yes . i think I need one , to study some books , some articles and threads , maybe try some tools , see if I can use them . Nowadays I think I need a break , I might take one , not for too long , maybe some weeks , two weeks or three , I will see

 

[odonob]

Yes, I gave it up for a few months. Sometimes good to have a break.

Leaving poker completely I don't think so, but I have considered stopping playing it for a while, once I last 3 years without playing it.

 

[MattRyder]

Every day and twice on Sundays.

Many times thought About quitting pokerstars (not poker because I love it) but anyone who plays there on stars know the reasons why I really don’t need to go into it…lol but I’m sure everyone had their reasons 👌🏻👍🏻

I actually did quit, for a while. I won't get into why. It only lasted about six months or so. So I guess you could call it a break. But when I "quit", I didn't have any intention of playing online poker again, or at least not on any serious level. I created a Zynga Poker account. To me playing on Zynga was like the equivalent of playing solitaire for an hour or so just to kill time, not something to take seriously. But it was hard for me to play and not try to do my best to win. Eventually I started back with freerolls on BOL and ACR before settling on ACR. I'm still not into it the way I was before. I feel like I could win more if I played more. Yet I regularly go days at a time without playing.

How can you use zynga and poker in the same sentence 😂🤦‍♂️Zynga is not poker it’s bingo with no monetary value to it at all 🤦‍♂️

Much love

When I played cash games and lost, I thought many times to quit playing, now I play a freeroll, and I don’t think about quitting poker.

Have you ever thought about quitting poker?

I was thinking, but about quitting smoking
I never thought of quitting poker. Unlike smoking, poker does not harm my health, on the contrary, poker has a positive effect on my mood and brings positivity into my life.

I always swear to myself that when my bankroll is zero and it's just the beginning of the month and I don't even have cigarettes, I swear to myself that I'll quit poker

 

[NightStalker]

No, I never thought about that.

 

[juan1579]

leave it completely almost impossible, only the day I leave this world, but I have stopped playing for a while and then I return with good energy

 

[davidsincara]

Everytime im deep on a downswing, but part of mental game is to hold on that tiny light on the end of a tunnel that everything is gonna change in the next session if you keep playing good

 

[nakiesQUensyyy]

Yes, there were thoughts, but shortly after I stopped, it started again, and I can't stop.

 

[ledsmith]

Not only did I think about quitting poker, but at some point I quit. But two years later I came back.

 

[georgi krastev]

Yeah, some times, when i got in deep tilt, but later i realize, that i'm playng wrong, and i come back with couple of all in's preflop, for good mood, and start over.

 

[Achrarock]

I do not think and will not leave poker

I've been playing this online poker game for several years now and i had consider quitting this poker thing. The main reason is the bad body that lets you see how your bankroll is burning based on bad beats and found hands... Then another reason is the large amount of time it consumes... Sometimes you want to play everything in a big tournament such as Sunday million and if you win then you are welcome and if you lose then goodbye poker and goodbye bad times. More than once I have made plans of how I would spend my bankroll if I clicked on something, It is also true that I am doing this approach because I am going through a bad streak in poker What saddens me the most is throwing overboard all the knowledge acquired in articles, books and videos... (lots of hours invested) but overall i think is only for moments sometimes i hate it and sometimes i love it

 

[Jogo4]

when you think about giving up it's because you're not playing, nothing has to study

 

[martinoni]

Just for a moment sometimes, but this thought suddenly desappears hahaha

 

[gbaby91]

Maybe its good to think it over ,cause comparing the dissapointment to the happy moments ...

 

[hcuervo]

many times I consider leaving poker but it is a source of attraction, you leave it, you take it, you leave it again and come back

 

[akmost]

I hardly play twice a week because of my other priorities , so no, NEVER!!! <3

 

[Falai_san]

I never thought of leaving poker because I love to play it and consider it my favorite hobby

 

[aissam18]

To be honest i lot of times but only when im tilted but normally i love playing it
