I perosnally agree with eveyrthing shannon said beside being the sickest upswing of my life. Being a poker pro is not for the faint of heart and def isn't the healthiest lifestyle.

"I probably should dedicate more time to reading/studying the game and players like some guys do. I just don't want to invest any more time into this stupid game than I already do."

Doesn't any good job require this anyway? This might be the worst few lines in any poker blog ever. Hes saying I really want to turn around my results, but I don't want to put in the time or the effort to become better.

That's a good point, but one of the hardest things about poker is that often variance rewards bad decisions so when you're reeling and in a downswing it's hard to get your bearings on what "correct" poker is. You learn the wrong lessons even if you're working hard at getting better.

Poker is such a tough game to win at consistently when you see different top players winning with completely different styles of play. It drove me nuts when I tried to do it full-time and I finally realized I could never wake up in the morning knowing I had to win at poker to eat. I admire you guys who can stay in it, though.

lol Feltin Licter is the biggest jealous hater ever. I always get a kick out of people who knock frat guys too. Has anyone ever heard anyone who actually was in a frat regret their experience? No, they all have a great time and make a bunch of great friends. Jealousy is a bitch.
