Default Re: Poker discourages me from staying in college

Let's put this in a poker perspective...
You or someone paid for you to attend this university. Throwing that money away is -EV.
Tuition + room and board + perspective furture earnings = a lot of friggin' money. That's money spent then wasted and money lost.
In addition to that, you're not as good at poker as you think you are, and early on your expenses will surprise you vs the money intake from playing poker.
Right now do what you have to so later in life you can do what you want to. Quitting or not concentrating on school may turn out to be the biggest -EV move of your life.
