Play bridge. There is less variance and it is a pretty sick game when you get to know the basics..

boys dont cry


seriously though you have a job right? why do you have to play poker? just do something else with your spare time instead. play golf, or frisbee golf (!), or WoW/some computer game, or xbox, or something. poker has made me terribly frustrated at times but i've never felt like i was going to cry. i feel like if you take it on an emotional level that much, its going to be difficult to ever really win/not tilt long term.

no. seriously.

poker will mess with your soul. WoW will try to eat it, digest it and make sure it never sees daylight again.

I hope you have lots and lots of free time available for coaching.

In fairness, if you expanded this offer to other forums you might be doing nothing but coaching until 2031.
