We all seen it coming, or at least a good chunk of us did.

When Brian finally met variance it tore his image of himself down and he finally realized he isn't the greatest player to have ever lived and seen his lifestyle shredding away.

I don't blame him.

No, I don't hate Brian.

I watched him play forever, he ran sick hot and anyone that has watched him play in his span will agree with me.

Maybe he just had the boomswitched account? That's your theory at least.

Maybe the guy is just tired of poker. He has played a [censored] load of hands over the last few years.

He hasn't played a load of hands. I think the multi tables at the 1/2 2/4 level probably play 3x the amount of hands he plays.

at 1/100th of the stress. being a robot and playing your C game half the time isn't that big a deal when you're 12 tabling 1/2 NL. Having to be on top of your game at all times, regardless of how many hands you play, seems rather difficult.

it seems to me Brian wants the ultimate lifestyle. Poker to him, was perhaps entertaining and challenging in the past,but he has also realized that he has made so much money, made enough good friends, and achieved what he wanted through this poker "thing", that he doesn't need to continue this grind I think he is now ready to move beyond the poker lifestyle and go after something greater, more meaningful to him.Shouldn't we be cheering him on?
