What would it take for you to quit online poker?
For me if Party ever goes the route of Pokerroom and Pacific and starts micro raking the 2/4 and above games. Also if they try to raise the rake close to a bricks and mortar sites rates, considering the games are way tougher than the same limit at a casino. If Party buys out Empire and ends their affiliate deals I may leave Party..... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

The poker world doesn't revolve around Party.

Re: What would it take for you to quit online poker?
quitting party would be almost like quitting poker for me as how many large sites are there? I don't play online poker for fun (or BM limit for that matter). So if they are fleecing me to the point where I am winning jack squat, I don't see the point in playing. I already have seen about 150 a month getting robbed out of my pockets due to their .5 raise in December of 03'...... [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Re: What would it take for you to quit online poker?
If I won $3 million or something in a major live event I would strongly consider not even bothering with online poker very much.
I do enjoy playing...but mostly I play because it's my source of income. If my income were taken care of then I certainly wouldn't feel the 'need' or 'obligation' to play nearly as much as I do (or even 'at all' really). I mean, maybe I would be all stir-crazy and bored and then play again...but I think the chances of me travelling more and playing the occasional live event while almost never playing online again would be much higher. I don't know...maybe I would take the big roll and develop and interest in beating the 50/100 or 100/200 games even though I'm fairly certain I would be a losing player at those limits. but I think I could find other ways to challenge myself in life. as far as 'how BAD would the games or the rake need to be to consider quitting?' If I determined that the games were -EV for me (or not enough +EV) and/or my bankroll was getting clobbered I would have virtually no hesitation or problem to take up a 'real' job again...deciding what the hell I would want to do would be a bit tricky though. There's no way i would continue playing this silly game if it weren't +EV. |
