I've played too much poker.

I'm an addict. I can't stop playing even though I am so freaking tired of playing. I've spent the l've spent the last 13 hours playing. I've been playing for at least 2-3 hours when I wake up in the mornings. I spend all my downtime at work playing freerolls or on PO. I need to stop, because I'm not even having much fun, but I've made some improvements to my game recently and I'm becoming a little more profitable. Today was actually good for my bankroll, but I need to take a break! Instead of taking a break I'm playing like a lunatic in Fun Steps!! Ok, that's just my rant for tonight. I already know I won't be playing tomorrow, so I'll get a little bit of a break. All I need is a few days away, and then I'll be right back having fun with poker again.

6 or 7 yrs constantly now its a habit i sometimes hate but mostly love

Lol, nice, but I'm not really into group therapy. I'd rather sit and home and play poker. Plus I would feel like a real asshole going in there with people that have lost thousands of dollars just to say I haven't lost anything, I just spend to much time online playing poker for pennies!

When I lived in Missouri I actually tried to blacklist myself from the casinos there, and it was the most gigantic pain in the ass, degrading process ever. So that on top of the fact my husband didn't think it was a good idea meant I never followed through.

if you do want to quit just cut off your dsl wireless cord.

i stop play poker over 1 year, but now im back ! :)

think most of us feel the same way! but as long as u are not going into bankruptcy over it, or losing your job!! your str8!!! but taking a break from time to time helps!! good luck to you!!

take several weeks off. same thing happens in chess, you get burnt out sometimes and when you come back after awhile it is enjoyable again

Yes if you take a break when you feel like that you come back refreshed...

I've drag raced for over 45 years,,, I love the game of poker, it gives me my fix of competing against other people, I live alone and home all day, so it helps pass the time.

No, that's if I want to die. My husband would kill me since he likes to play Halo with this friends and other various gaming.

Well the good thing is that you'll sooner or later run short of funds... then... bingo no more poker issues.

Impossible, I'm doing Zero to Hero. There's always freerolls to play. In fact that is almost exclusively what I was playing yesterday.

if I didn't have a job I would play 24 hours a day just like my good old friend green giant

fuck this poker im sick of it. such scandrels hehe if I had a job I wouldn't be seen here. but hey shit is for me the way it is. so I have had enough of online poker, rather play cards with people I can see and who aren't assholes.

poker is the air that I breathe I would play more if I didn't work
