I play poker online – need some advice?
Tuesday, March 10th, 2009Recently I’ve been playing online poker and making some decent money.
But I realized it’s having side-effects on me. I put in 20-30 hours a week and make like ~$2000. But it’s really nerve racking to play. I’m holding my breath when my moneys on the line, basically the whole time. My eyes are focused the entire time because I play many tables and never really have a second to rest. It’s decision after decision so I don’t have time to rest my eyes. Also I get the ultimate highs and lows after playing. After a few months of this, it’s starting to really change who I am even when I don’t play poker.
What do yall think?
PROS: I can make $100,000+ a year and eventually more.
CONS: ITS RUINING MY LIFE
Is there any way to relax…….. my brain gets so stimulated after I just have to do 10 things at once or I get bored.
quit cold turkey? damn i thought about that but that’s a lot of money Im giving up. I’ve already made 100K and am still doing well. You think there’s another way to find balance?
Shaman: So what are u saying? Quit completely? I’ve already limited myself to 2-3 hours a day and I can’t help myself winning the amount that I do. As for contributions to the world, the more $ i make hte more i can contribute, just as long as I’m not being affected by it.
