Good Luck with the girl or maybe you already got lucky, hence the change in your attitude.

Move up stakes to bring back the excitement.

This place is clearly a lot kinder than BBV, but how has no one mentioned this:

I had a minor downswing last night (-20BB).

Sat down, played for an hour. Down 2 BB. My heart is defintely not into this anymore.

Assuming that BB = big bets, 20BB is not a downswing - it's a buy-in! And 2BB? That's noise. If these loses seem at all significant to you, then you either haven't played all that much, or you've been running good.

[/ QUOTE ]20 bb is a buyin? hohoho, maybe for you.

IM DONE

i havent read any of the resopnces, but i hated poker a month ago. I am also in college, and I made a ton more playing poker than I could at any job availible to me while still in school. I started to dread putting in time playing even though i was still making money. I played a lot less for about a month, but still hated it, then I just took off a whole month totaly. I didnt play, or think about poker. I cashed out a huge chunck of my roll, and moved down, and now I enjoy playing again. Just take some time off, maybe even a whole month. If you are making money then just take some time off and pick it back up in a while. I also play less often than before, but still make good money, and also look forward to/enjoy playing, which is a totaly different attitude than I had a while ago. also now i dont tilt at all, i wasnt bad at tilting before, but now it is basicaly non-exestant and the 2 outers on the river for 15BBs dont hurt, they are just entertainment now (ps, im drunk, sorry if i totaly rambled on)
