Even if your an online pro....

I played for about three years in casinos, and loved it, but went to work to make more money. This time around, I have played mostly online - without a paycheck since Sept. of 2002 - and I'm getting crankier every day. I played 1400 hours last year and will hit about the same total this year - but it's not as much fun.

I've only has a few "vacation" days since our trip to Tahoe and then NM in July (after WSOP in June), and I also am getting my BS degree. We'll be in Hawaii for two weeks in mid Dec. and I'm hoping I'll feel more like playing then.

Right now I'm just not having any fun, and my results are definitly reflecting my frame of mind. You can't make yourself love something - regardless of what it pays. On the other hand, I don't want to give up the freedom. Hmmmm [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

That's too bad man. I have just started getting into it, and I'm really enjoying myself. I've studied it almost every day for a couple years now but have been keeping a book for the last 6 months. I'm doing well and I wonder if I will run out of steam. I really love the game, though and study it all the time. Did you ever have that kind of attitude toward it? Or did it just work for you?
