Gambling (online and in casinos), drinking (online and in casinos) and tilting (that only happens to me online, I guess its something about being able to face a person and having to face people that keeps me calm playing live) have always taken away from my profits greatly.
I'm working on this and probably will for the rest of my life. I will always drink when I want to but I need to learn to limit my drinking or get up from the table. I like to gamble and probably always will but I need to limit my gambling. Set an amount to lose when I decide to gamble and stick to it. I should never go play blackjack online because I'm down at the poker tables, which I have done plenty of times and thrown away the rest of my roll. It's pathetic but it's true. I can also say, recognizing my "leaks" and making just a little progress has helped me quite a bit.
But, I don't want to be the type of person who has to "avoid" things. I want to be the type of person who is control of himself and his life. I do not mean that to be insulting at all. It is just how I feel. I respect your decision and right to your own reason. And If I judge (which I do all the time) it's because I'm an asshole.

If you drink, or you can not control emotions at the table. You should not play. For me, even a small dose of alcohol causes other decisions than usual. Already by alcohol lost once bankroll .. Currently, I play just for fun, freeroll. He will not put money in six months is my personal success.

I actually prefer live poker because you can see your opponent and also get in their head a little bit easier.

I wish I had a casino close to me so I could play live. I miss living 5 min away from the casino before we moved. I can't wait to get into live poker again. Good luck too you...
