Should I start playing poker again?

[ProZachNation]

Seems like I play get really into it make like 1k get stuck around there and quit out of frustration once a year

And it is that time of the year again....

I got like $9 on FTP from last time I quit after I withdrew.
What to do what to do? Build it up from like 10 bucks into a grand and quit again? Build it up and actually learn to play poker... because who does that?

Graduating in December probably will not find a job for a few months so I could play then while I live at home and am depressed. (prozach.gif)



Just went and played live $30 Freezeout normal pretty severe live blind structure. 24 players bubbled in 4th, good thing one of the guys came up and said to me you should work out a deal for bubble everyone pays $10 so they break even, everyone agreed next hand I had A4 went all in other shorty called me and he had AT and I was left with half a BB and broke even. 3 and a half hours of entertainment for free aint bad.



So what regulars are still around anyone remember me and want to be my mentor?

dont do it.. just go get a job, experience life. Poker sucks balls.

[wufwugy]

What boost said

In some ways it's easy as shit, in other ways it sucks balls. Personally, it's been a HUGE struggle for me. I'm pretty good at it, but that doesn't keep it from being the bitch that it is, and making me wish I felt like I had a better option

Plus I hate competition so I will never recommend anybody try to become a winning player since that effectively lowers my own winningness

[ProZachNation]

well of course I am going to get a job, never played poker for the money

[ProZachNation]

and I know all three of you, you guys most scare away everyone else

<-- Xmas 08 avatar still up, what happened to you guys?

[BankItDrew]

I got a strike for my X-Mas avatar...

Obviously start playing poker again, not many hobbies make you monies like this.

[ProZachNation]

Yeah

I feel like I could be good I know I am smarter than the average bear but that only gets you so far, I know I can beat (or could beat) 25nl pretty easily.

Problem is when I move up and get frustrated and quit. I think it was 25nl twice and 50nl last time so I guess that is improvement.

[ProZachNation]

wow I have been here longer than most of you and still and awful player, wish I had put my 4 years on ftr and stuck with it who knows I can be a donk 100nl reg by now

How do you get such a small amount of FTP points? o_O

As played I'd use it to buy into tournaments.

ftops starts in a month so there should be some super duper ftp point sats.

thats not bad, but Id look to play something that gives you cash. With the toakens you have to buy into a 24+2 stt/mtt and therefore you are not able to exercise any form of br management.

[spoonitnow]

I sent you a PM, I'll show you something that will be worth your time if you decide to start playing again, not particularly poker related but yeah w/e you'll see.

[wufwugy]

so spoon's sending out nudes now?
