2) when you START feeling bored, quit!


[/ QUOTE ]

If you want to play professionaly you have to overcome this. I play bored all the time. Smashing down your emotions is a big part of playing continuous winning poker. If you play emotionless, it does take the fun out of poker.

Forgive me if someone differs from this oppinion, but there is no way I would make rent if I quit every time I was bored.

Hear, hear.
Of course it's different if poker isn't your primary/sole source of income. But if it is, you simply MUST learn to play your A game even when bored.
I doubt there's a single thing in the world that a person can do for a living that isn't boring for long stretches.

Rest is for the weak! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
