your on line story nearly mimicks mine. i jumped in head first 4 tabling pl omaha and made 30k in 4 months BUT i simply lost all interest in poker, i dont even play anymore, its weird. i think on line triggers that part of my brain which doesnt want ot work...the idea of being at a computer starts to associate poker with work and then you dont want to play poker anymore. im launcing a new career as a golf hustler.

Default Hey Dynasty you never thought of a part time job?

Since you probably didn't make anything for 4 months you never thought of getting a job at a book store or drive limo/cab just to refresh yourself for cards? Just not spending with nothing coming in can eat away at you..........

This is one reason you need a big enough seperate 'roll' so you don't have to worry about 'nothing coming in' while you go through these types of times.

Another great post, but the thing I really want to know is how did you get a green name?

Default It\'s Not Easy Being Green

The only Green Dynasty I knew before this were relatives of mine in Brooklyn.

you should take some notes & jot some of your thoughts down along the way; just some of the stories around the rooms, the characters, the life...

you're an articulate writer & have an interesting story i think most of us "avg joe's" can relate to (unlike El Diablo who shares drinks & silly jokes w/ Petra Nemcova...)

Yknow, I've pondered at times, especially lately, sending you or clarky or ed inquiring whether you guys ever found yourself in this spot and how you worked through it:

I haven't run into slavic lately to get his opinion on it. He always has a cool way of looking at it.

Don't drag me into this, that's all I need is to be blamed for Dynasty becoming bored with poker. Lord knows I have my own troubles.

BTW I haven't played much at all over the last 4 or 5 months, as I'm sure David Ross can confirm. I'm amazed at David's stamina to log large numbers of hands, and sure I have an excuse not to but that doesn't mean it's right.

If anyone bottles motivation they'll make a fortune.
