These are all really great posts. If you have play problem it's important to figure out how to lose the least amount of money and make the most obviously. Regardless of whether it is a play problem or a life problem. Ultimately you need to be both sound in play and in external factors.
A lot of the time if you have an external factor it is best to treat poker like a job or like an activity where you are trying to accomplish a goal such as studying or rock climbing. You wouldn't drink on the job, or get wasted while trying to rock climb or study if you wanted to get good results. Poker is really not that much different.
For those with play skill problems its important to talk to other people with similar problems to discuss how you can combat the problems its best to try and come up with it yourselves because that way you will remember the concept or reasoning better than if you ask XYZ and they just say b/f 220, even if they explain why. It for some reason is just not as memorable as being like blah blah blah and both coming to the conclusion that b/f 220 is the best that you came up with. Obviously you can still ask better players then yourself what they think too.
