I always think about quitting when they beat my Aces with some 2 7 All In Preflop ^^

I have no intenion of quitting poker I enjoy it too much. I just played with some friends last night, up $400. Maybe I will be done next week, it all evens out. Playing with strangers is the best, you learn so much.

How often do u win?

Have u ever think about stop playing? why?
Hello, my poker brothers and sisters,
I play this game for a very long time, it was always for fun, never made some big wins out it, but the fun is priceless from my point of view, so in this way...I could call myself a god of poker :D

Quite the opposite, I am on a way on some higher performances, intend to play someday, in a very professional way. It is a lovely way of earning an existence, and honestly is one of my favorite games to play, especially in Live tournaments, where people are simply marvelous and the game can get epic. The thrills of the game can be felt in eFfing drifting in some ways:laugh:(that safe place of dirt with nothing to hit, on a decent rwd car and with desire for adrenaline. from 0-30-35 there`s a point of "relaxed enjoyment" of it. Those 2, are similar. The drifting with an All-In AA with AA on the flop).
English is a 2nd language for me, but I try to master it. Any flaws in my texts, please point them out. You`re helping me. Thank you for your attention and time, kind regards,
From the other side of the world, for some of you:cool:

I have become very frustrated with sites I play at regularly that appear to be trying to change their formats to be more favorable to them I guess , because me as player I am not really benefiting from their so called updates...it's quite a travesty because their old formats had NO issues...so I am guessing they wasn't making enough money so they are trying fix that. I love poker and its challenges ...and hope my frustrations do not cause me to go try something else.. Sad I play daily pretty loyal not feeling very appreciated

Obviously everybody plays poker to make money. Playing poker for a long time, 10 years probably, during this time, never thought to quit playing poker, it's like your own business, you are your own boss, besides this is a business you can do in any part of the world and at any time. Poker is freedom !

Poker is my favorite hobby, so I play when I have free time. I like this game and I do not think that in the future I will stop playing.

Hi.
I stop playing when I have a bad mood when I feel bad or when I want to sleep. Other reasons not to play poker does not exist for me.
Good luck.

Great Questions...

I Think about how can I continue to play when I'm sat in the Bath...

I think that "I'm going to have to stop Playing Now" when I have a shower...

I've even given it a great amount of thought when I'm about to eat a meal... I think how long is this meal going to take, how long will the drive home be? will i make it back in time to Play CardsChat FRC... lol

I play poker because I love it. Money can change a little, but it's a game that I could not do without.

I have never thought about leaving poker, this game is relaxing for me and I also feel the adrenaline when I play. I'm normally inside the bubble, but it's costing me to get to the final table

Yes, sometimes there is a glut of poker. Then I'll take a break. And in 2-3 days I start playing again.

Yes, this usually happens when you don’t add up for a long time and you lose a lot of money and already lose hope and faith and begin to doubt your game, you think that you started playing worse than your opponents, that players already play stronger than you and you think that in poker can not win money.

I’m actually just returning from about a 6 month hiatus. It was becoming too much of my free time so took a break to do other things. You only live once! Now I’m back but going to play a lighter schedule to hope to stay in the game and not burn out.

Best of luck.

I try to play poker as much as I can no matter what time it is. I only think about stopping playing poker is when my wife complains about it.

I play because I like it and I would love to win something important not only because of the monetary fact.
I stopped several pours but I continued.
I do not win very often but I do win small victories.

I thought about leaving the poker completely because of long negative periods

Before some years I stopped playing for a year with real money because of a massive tilt.
I focused on freerolls. Made about $150 and came back fresh as ever, knowing that I cost me money when I don't play.
