Try going to play some PLAY MONEY on stars......
And by that, I mean the 50 000 SNGs..... they are UNDERATED for what they are, and they are also very difficult to conquer. Most of the players are better than most of all the micro limit players... That's a possible option for you.... I know many of you are going to bash me for saying "Play money" however, I learnt A LOT from the 50 000 games.... Bash away

Im gonna activly answer this thread because maybe it will help someone else that might be going down same road I have many times. I honestly want to totally seperate myself from poker rightn now, but when/if I do come back I have no problem putting $50 or so on and playing 45 person $1.00+.20 sit and go's. I'am the most negative person when it comes to play money, I hate it and will never play it. Like I said I will never play poker trying to make tons of money with it and will never keep more then $100 in my account at a time. If I happen to win a tourney when I come back I will withdraw anything over $100 because its too tempting to move up levels and donkey my money away. If there would be something I wanted to play I would deposit just to play that event....make sense? |

If you want/need to distance yourself from poker, I understand. I think it's fairly well known that I forced myself to take a month off, circa 2003, and to this day, I am still glad that I did.
But............................. if you think you'd like to play for fun, come join a few our our league events. Watching eejit donk off his money (after sucking out on and doubling through studiopet) and watching pshabi go on "life tilt" when he loses a coinflip.... it's just priceless, I tell ya. |

yea good idea
yea sounds like fun and when you do league #3 I might take you up on that TP. I really do want to take at least a couple months off to make sure I can get away from it if I need to. I think im addicted to a point but want to make sure I can control it. Want to make sure I can go awhile without playing. I think if I can just play for fun I can really enjoy poker like I used to because to be honest with you I was disgusted <sp> last couple days. Seems like when there is no pressure on me and Im just playing for fun I tend to do alot better. Like the AC tourney, and like when I got back from it. BUT when I made what I concider a really good bankroll I just blew up. I will still be around.....You know you all cant get rid of me

Brian i will say that when i took a break from poker (though not volunteerly) It helped me greatly....i read books and MUCH MUCH advice from Zy, Shabi, TP and the rest of the gang and when i got back into poker i saw myself as a MUCH MUCH better player...i realized what BR management was....i found out the importance of playing others as well as yourself.....i won a couple live tournies and can say i have the confidence i should have had a long time ago when playing.....best of luck with your departure from the game and i hope that you learn a lot from it....i know i did
