lolz i miss waffle house we dont got that kinda thing here in norcal....man i have been through the worst 4 sessions of my poker career. I played like 300 frekin matches for like 250 bucks profit. I was on a downswing of like 1K for awhile and i got it back.

Seriously, i know we will run bad but the suckouts and such have been seriously heart breaking for me and I'm considering cashing it all out, and cashing in my 40K FPPs on stars for $$ and just calling it quits for awhile. I know I wont actually do this because im addicted to cards but i really have been thinking about it.

Stars just might be rigged, Im starting to believe it.

I thought you were proud of how you dealt with it?

well im not proud that i spent so many hours to make so little money when i could have made more money doing something else non-poker related. I mean i stayed up the whole night sunday to get that $ back and now I'm so tired that I can barely function. It takes a 31-yr old like 3x more time to recover from an all-nighter than it takes a 21-yr old. I probably will stick with poker but I need to treat it more like a hobby than a profession. I need to play fewer games and just enjoy a marginal side income because grinding my ass off affects my "real job" which is pretty damn profitable and easy compared to [censored] poker.

playing all nighters negatively affects your winrate and emotional state. games will be there tomorrow and next week.

i set a do not play past 1am rule for myself...

yes i agree and usually do not play late....but its hard for me to accept that i will have to go to work the next day a loser....i'd rather miss a night's sleep....see my problem is that every day MUST be a winning session or im depressed. That's why i dont play the super high stakes.
