Default Full time poker players: Do you play video games (Civ 4, AOE3, etc)?

i used to be a hardcore gamer and spending countless hrs on games like AOE II.

then i played poker part time (while still having a full time job), and i couldnt finish Max Payne 2.

Now that i've started playing poker full time, i've stopped playing video games all together. I no longer have an interest.

it's like i can only handle one computer addiction at a time.

yet in my non-poker playing hrs, i spend most of that time surfing the web.

If you're a full time poker player, do you still play video games? If so, how do you do it? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I used to play tons of AOK and CS. Now I usually only play console games. No more PC games. Did you play Age on the zone? What was your sn?

I'm basically exactly the same as you. I was big into computer games before poker. Now that I play poker, I don't really have much interest in computer games anymore. I don't know why. When I'm not playing poker, I too surf the net a lot. 2+2 is the web site that by far gets the majority of my attention. I will occasionally play DOTA (war3 mod. fun as hell) with my buddies though.

I like to have a good online FPS blast to let off steam after a poker session. Battlefield 2 is the current, it used to be Counterstrike, before that Battlefield 1. I like games that I can play to 20-30 minutes, I don't want to get sucked into a 5 hour marathon session. That's what poker is for.

The past 3 months games have really prevented me from hitting my monthly hand goals, and now with Civ 4, it does not look good for this month either. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I haven't played any poker since Civ 4 hit the store last week ... few more days and my little vacation will be over and I'll get back to work.
