thank you

[slicer65]

I want to thank everybody that has given there input into my questions. But Im tired of losing and this is the first time in my life of done this. But I am quiting. I obviously am not grasping this. And the harder I try, the worst I get. Again Thank you for all of your help.

easy peasy way out my man. Whats your biggest downswing? Bet it isn't over 300bb's. At least 7 times a week i consider never going near poker again. My suggestion, take a step back, study and don't be too concerned about your results. Just have some fun with it.

over this summer 500bb. When I started reading SSH, my play got worse. I went from a break even player for 2.5 years to losing 500 bb in about 4 months.

Dude, I'm not gonna try and convince you to not quit, because, frankly, I don't care whether or not you play poker. But seriously, you have less than 20 posts. Quitting now is like asking your first special someone out for your very first date, getting turned down, and deciding to live the rest of your life like a monk because you just can't get the hang of this whole "dating" thing.

What limit do you play?

[slicer65]

Ive been playing for 3 years and have played 100,000's of hands. Jaran do you think its reasonable that I am still an unprofitable player? That This amount of time is not an indication that I'm not getting it?

my god man, why? I think if i was a loser over 100000's of hands, quitting would be the easiest thin in the world to do.

Good luck in life. There is more to it than poker.

OK, don't 'quit', just don't play for a while. Spend your next months poker time studying, or reviewing, and not playing and losing. Plug some leaks and start over.
