Disappointed, been slipping - new rules for myself

[TheGambino]

I'm not going to play myself from today on.

I been going to a pokergame for a week now and i'm no 3K loss. I can miss it but it's a lot of money. Been also smoking a lot of hookah since then and my fitness and work regime are bad and slipping now.

As a man I make new hard appointments with myself from 17-8.

- No pokergames, deleted all numbers.
- No hookah
- Back to fitness/work schedule forget this week --> NEW DAY.

Good to notice that changes need to be made. That’s over half the battle there. But if you enjoy poker as a social thing I wouldn’t cut it out but cut down. Now if you think it’s more of an addiction and your loosing money and can’t control it then yeah time to quit. I used to play some back room poker and it was fun times I really miss it.

You can try soccer bets. There are programs out there, usually as excel spread sheets, which let you guess an outcome. Usually you can find them for free if you look good enough. Basically, it's fun. I put minimum on a game and stay afloat. Then when you play often club will give you free bets. I got a free bet for $20 yesterday, when my usual bet is about 50 cents. It's fun and exciting. You develop strategies and keep your balance somewhere around what you put in originally, I never put more than $2 and that $2 can last me a month.

Kudos on you for recognizing this and working on it!

well one rule I have for myself is never bet, so if you like poker find one who you don't have to spend money and just to have fun?
