Default Re: can\'t keep playing when i\'m beating the game

It always happens and I always say I won't do it again and I always do it again...win 2 buy ins and lose all will to continue playing, even though the game is great and I've only been playing 2 hours...it used to happen online too, I sit down and win 2 buy ins in 20 minutes and I just can't drive myself to play anymore.

The problem is I play for a living and I cap myself at 5-800 bux a week. I have no problem playing an 8 hour stint if I'm even or stuck.

The thing is I HATE to lose at poker, so once I've won I just leave for a little mental victory or something.

It's sounds like you're really not cut out to play poker for a living. Maybe you should consider getting a different main job, while keeping poker as a presumably lucrative second job?
