**Official uNL Microbrew thread: August**

This morning I cashed out my roll. I just snapped and quit cold turkey out of nowhere. I realized I don't have the emotional control to play a consistent winning game nor do I have the stamina to play long sessions. I'll still probably hang around 2p2 though, maybe deposit again and start grinding with a clear-head, but for now I really can't deal with the stress. There's other things in my life that need attention right now, which is probably why my game has suffered. I'll probably wake up tomorrow and hate myself for doing it but.. I think it's necessary for my own sanity.

Just completed my first 20NL session on prima, was quite nervous and played a bit nitty, but managed to run pretty breakeven and finished up half a BI.

I did about 250 hands, and was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to do a session review for me as it is my first shot at 20NL. If you pm me your email I can send you the HH. I am not sure what I can offer in return, as my advice is probably not yet too valuable, but I would think very highly of anyone who would be kind enough to do this for me.

Thanks

kinda sucks but sounds like you probably made the right choice. I use to have a lot of trouble w/ emotions w/ the game myself, and still do sometimes. But lettin them take over obv affects the way you play.

i did this about a month ago. come back to the game when you're ready to play clear-headed and without emotion.

this past month Ive gotten a million times better at poker, even though I still suck and tilt sometimes. With a little more work and discipline I'll be out of microstakes in no time.
