Default Re: Gambling Addiction

[ QUOTE ]
What % of winning players would you guys say have gambling addictions?
Do you think it helps or hurts your progress as a better poker player?
If you do have one, how do you best deal with it when trying to focus on other aspects of life?


I know that I crave the need to play sometimes after less then a day of not playing. I have not played for 2 weeks (due to me being in italy for vacation and it being illegal to play in italy) and I miss it terribly. Sometimes this bothers me, and I am wondering if other people go through similar things such as this.

probably 85% of poker players, even winning players are somewhat addicted to playing poker. Playing pool is also an addiction but I call it healthy addiction. Just like my addiction to get BJ. HQAHJAHAHA
