poker sucks
 
I quit my job this week because I was doing very well at 50nl. I wasnt planning on grinding that out for a living but was goign to find a less stressful position with hours better suited to my poker playing. Then I go on the wrost down swing ever, I cant play a hand without losing or getting stacked. Suck outs at every turn. Lost so much I moved down to 25nl and then to 10nl and still losing. Any words of advice on how to cope with this [censored] before I throw my computer and ever poker book I own out the damn window? Thanks in advance

Thinking about awful UK exchange rates we get, its probably still more- but poker for a living is more stressful than flippin burgers.

Dumb as it sounds you can earn more per hour at 50NL than at most jobs.
