Re: Full time poker players: Do you play video games (Civ 4, AOE3, etc)?
I'm no longer a full time player, but I found myself playing far less of other computer games when I moved into playing poker seriously.
I could make money playing poker, which I liked, and found being away from the computer more rewarding the more time I was spending in front of it. |

I've tossed and deleted 5 games about 12 times total. Videogames are the number 1 enemy to my poker career (besides sucking). [/ QUOTE ] Yep. Me too. I buy them. I waste a week. I throw it away. I repeat the process about every 14 months. It wrecks my life, and more than just poker. Ack. psw |

Civ 4 has definately cost me alot of money lately.
Though not necessarily -EV, as it is a good stress reliever and helps keep me patient. |

The last thing that I need is a hobby that will have me spending even more time in front of the computer. I used to be a hardcore gamer and now play no computer games.

Winning poker player, playing video games instead = -EV Losing poker player, playing video games instead = +EV Winning poker player, playing video games on 2nd monitor = priceless [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] hehe I was trying this awhile ago. 2 Tables + World of Warcraft. I just found it to be a little annoying on the one monitor. I also think I should quit playing WOW and play more poker. |
Re: Full time poker players: Do you play video games (Civ 4, AOE3, etc)?
I have friends whose lives are engrossed by WoW. Always vowed to stay away. Glad I have so far.
Starcraft is the game that stole a big chunk of my life. I was never quite at the level of players like ElkY, Rekrul, Tillerman, but I now play almost zero SC anymore. I think the same goes for them. Its funny how TL.net, for years, the premier SC message board is now taken over by poker discussion. |

I´m a game cube manic and I think it is very relaxing to play on my cube between the poker sessions.
