I make about $35ph, including bonus.

The problem is I don't work very many hours; currently I'm mainly playing less profitable computer games, such as Spore.

My question is how do the regulars motivate themselves?

I think of the game as a limited time opportunity. The games can only get harder as time goes on. Also, we can't be sure UIGA is the only or worst thing that can happen to the game.

On second thought, you could always quit your job and cancel all your credit cards. Then you would be playing for food/shelter. That might motivate you.

My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

I've found that feeling unfazed by swings and variance - something that has taken me a long time to improve - makes it a lot easier to play longer and just enjoy what you're doing... It's a fun game.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
