i would stay away from poker... players who do well at poker are not the one's crying but the ones who are able to control their emotions and keep their game at 100%..

What is all this focus on the crying? Matesow did it quite publicly, it's just a stress reaction complicated by hormones right now. "Control their emotions?" The guy with the most WSOP bracelets is infamous for lack of emotional control. For the luvva mike, none of us had much control at this age - he'll be fine -

And NO ONE is "keeping thier game at 100%." No......one. One of the things Greenstein said that really helped me stop being so hard on myself, was that he makes about 20 mistakes in his game per session. What we hope we learn is to recognize when we are playing at less-than-optimum and back away or regroup. That takes time and experience which the OP can't get unless he plays, studies and evolves.

The getting laid advice was good, too. Uh- recommend not crying during that, tho.' [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
