Default IŽll quit playing (internet) poker

Hello,

I recently decided on quitting playing poker via internet, because I noticed that my PC was (is) permanently under attack by worms and spyware. My friends and family who donŽt play poker have no such problems.

There is another interesting thing, IŽd like you to know here. I started internet gambling last November and turned out to lose slightly but permanently until January. I was unemployed at that time but when I got a job offer by e-mail I was winning heavily for a week, I made $3000 from a $200 buy-in playing limit omaha hi/lo (max. 5/10 table), just to lose all the money within the night after my visit of the probable new employer.

I have a university degree in natural science, donŽt think I have a leck of intelligence or skill, but ín the meantime I got to the opinion that I donŽt get from the game what I want to achieve. (a little bit of fun/entertainment without losing heavily/permanently).

Best regards,

Spyware and such aren't coming from the poker sites.

If you just want to play for fun then I'd suggest playing lower than 5/10. You can play some 1/2 or 2/4, have fun, and probably beat it pretty easily.

lol, let me guess. you use Internet Explorer, don't run a firewall, dont run adaware or spy subtract, and dont use anti virus software. sound about right? learn how to use a computer and you wont be "permanently" under attack.

I don't get it. Why create a new account on some forum to tell a bunch of people you don't know that your quitting internet poker?

(translation: nobody cares)

Perhaps because I wanted to collect the replies.
