If, by "busto," you mean "used to play tons and tons of 50-100 up to 150/300 limit hold em, but then realized that my life was slipping away and I was miserable so I withdrew my entire stake, bought a big house in a beautiful neighborhood and started a business which is now thriving and much less stressful than full time poker," then, well, yeah...busto.

I don't miss it at all, fwiw.

I bought a house and invested the rest two years ago and haven't had a second thought. Been promoted two times at work and am very comfortable and enjoying management.

Go to B&M once in a while for a night out with the wife away from the kids - but other than that I am happily online busto.

Yeah, it's funny...there was a time when if anyone offered me the chance to play poker for a living, I would have asked them if they were crazy and said OF COURSE I want to play poker for a living, duh.

Now, the prospect of going back to that life feels like it would be a trip to the gulag, complete with toting huge boulders across an icy, unforgiving plain.

You get the idea.

yea cause ur a donk

[/ QUOTE ]

"Yeah, you get the idea" because I'm a donk, or "Yeah, all of that stuff you said, Dave, because you're a donk?"

Not that I have anything at all ego-wise invested in this, but I'm just curious what it is that leads you to this conclusion.

By the way, you only used one proper word properly in your post, and it was "a."

"Cause," while a proper word, was obviously used incorrectly.

Have we played poker together somewhere?

damn you're quick on the draw. You sure you don't have some ego invested in this? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Well, I suppose we all have ego invested in everything.

I just meant that I don't have that alpha male poker penis envy problem that I see so often.

Anyway...uh.

Nothing.
