I could give up poker for anyone in my nuclear family, if they had some serious arguments and it was taking an intense toll on our relationship. ALSO, I would give up poker if I got fat and anti-social. Two of my best friends play live full-time, have no lives, have gained a lot of weight, and have nothing interesting to talk about except hand histories. I don't want to be like them at any point in the near future, or ever for that matter. They did stack up quite a bit of greenbacks, though.
I enjoy playing the game. I think if you question whether you should or what might have you quit means that you're a freak! and not like that guys... lol - I know someone is thinking something dirty.
well i would for a house as long as the taxes were paid every year too. is that to greedy. i dont think so if i am giving up poker.
Just thought I'd throw out there that there's a huuuge difference between being anti-social and becoming anti-social. Klinkman and I both are somewhat anti-social, or socially awkward, although he is moreso than I. Neither of us really like large parties or being forced to be social with people we don't know, or having to deal with people in general sometimes, as they can get annoying. That's completely a different ballgame than becoming anti-social though. That's not really a good thing.Quote:

how long would i have to give up playing poker for? until the $$$ was gone or forever? if it was forever I wouldn't keep that promise... so i guess i'm saying i wouldn't give up playing poker....
Nope not greedy, I can understand completely! And look at what you are sacrificing, poker, that's a lot. That would be like me giving up my computer. It would take A whole lot maybe all of those things together for the switch.Quote:

Golf is my true passion, but expensive to play often.
As far as being anti-social, I don't need too much time outside my home and family. I love my NDN family too and I don't have to worry about upsetting my wife when I need social interaction. I lost 8 lbs this last 2 weeks, only 11
to go and I can get my box of old jeans out again.
woof woof

I would agree that I don't have anything to give up either.
So I will be playing poker forever.
Some days I feel the same way. Some days Im all gung ho about getting out and getting wild, sometimes I like to hide out and re-evaluate my life. But, yes you are right about BECOMING anti-social FROM poker is the worst, because it is just stripping you of your livelihood. I would hate to be so over-concerned with playing cards that I temporarily or permanently lose sight of what I really care about, and I think these forums can help keep a balance. however, if you prefer it that way, then no harm no foul.Quote:

lol.. I think its true.
Im playing really **** today.
I will play with u guys and hope to win.
So you guys can comment on my play.
I think Im bluffing too much..
It have being working a lot..
But when I have a mid-size power hand I call all in's .
One thing might be creating the other?:??
i guess what i'm trying to say is "isn't it best to keep it, poker, a hobby" un like the pros who can win 2,000,000 on monday and lose it on thursday. Are the three days in the middle worth trading a lifetime of memories away for. For a pro, must be he does it every day, for someone else? i don,t know where he sets his goals or dreams, for me no and no again!!! i like my house, food on the table, the kids coming over on weekends, and yes the crappy memories of tomorrow that i'll have next month ;if i live that long;and i love my HOBBIE!!!!Quote:

I like eejits answer the best. I would give it up if my family wanted me too. Oh well. Glad I don't have to make that decision though.
I have given up poker for golf and the horses. Once in a while, a forced family function gets in the way. Hey Freeringo, if you get a part-time job at a golf course, you can play everyday if you want and for FREE!!!!! I love working at the golf course. It's therapy for me. Nobody ever goes to the golf course if they are sick and they are always happy to be there, at least they are when they tee off. Coming off 18, some can't even talk about their game so they go straight to the 19th hole!!!! 18 holes of golf, happy hour at the track and then a little poker. Life is beautiful!!!!!
Thats my girl, only sometimes I tee off mad, other than that I agree with Kitty.Quote:
