It has happened to stop doing important things to play ... then I wondered what was wrong with me and put a brake! Les has passed something? Do not sleep, do not eat, do not go to work ....


In any of your activities there should be self-control and discipline, it all depends on you. Someone has enough time and patience to work in 2-3 jobs and raise children, so what makes you worse? It's all about motivation and working on yourself!

SlimHeperpokerstars,

I agree! It's all about self control. If you can't control yourself, then not only poker can ruin your life. You should enjoyed this game and not be a fanatic.

When I start playing poker, I played a lot but now I regulated my time. Think it was for me a new game, so I wanted to mastery my skills. Now it is just a game for me and I can miss the money what I deposited.

Poker is a game that you can take in two ways, from a hobby (just for fun, because you like it, because you have a nice time) to take it as a vice (When we put it to take as a vice is very dangerous and You have to know how to deal with it, because there are people who have lost their jobs, their money, even their home through poker), So I do not agree that poker is seen as a drug. Poker can at the same time be profitable for some times for some people but you have to take into account that sometimes you win and sometimes you lose!

I also can boast that I do not have any dependence in poker, I can always take a break in poker and spend time with my family.

well, no it's too much, maybe a poker game and took the place in my life, but does not replace life!

I get annoyed with my kids when they won't get away from me so I can play. I then have to re-center myself to the really important things. I will put off chores around the house at times.

I would say no as far as the financial part of it I only play what I can afford to. But I would say my love of the game some times takes away from family/friends time. Cant miss everything to make a tournament

not really like this. I am not addicted. You have to control yourself. you're your own time manager only. nobody is responsible for too much game playing than yourself. just one point of view.

good luck at the tables!!!

I don't think you really think that, and if you are there might be a problem there. That's my point of view.

Good like at the tables!!!

Poker isn't really a problem but gambling and staying behind a screen too long can be

When it's hobby, it's really not a problem, but you can not see when it develops into addiction!

I play a lot since I began playing a couple months ago. I love the game, but make sure to take care of my responsibilities first and foremost
