Default getting tired of it

Do you any of you feel like you are getting tired of poker? As soon I actually started getting good at poker I would just be pissed all the time at all the bad beats I would get. I have been playing for about three years now. The last year or so has not been good to me. I find not playing poker for a while makes me feel better as well. What do you think?

Id leave some money in a site, cause im sure u will probably comeback (unless u have a casino near u). But if not, good luck with whatever u do do.

Be sure to ship all PStars funds to fusting4321 (Glen Arm)

We are in the same boat. I gave it up for good too. Live games only for me. Can't stand these poker sites rewarding horrible play 8 out of 10 times anymore. Glad to see it isn't just my imagination. I have my share of losing to horrible play in live games but it is much lower pct. wise.

Before I quit playing online I actually started chasing straights and flushes only because it is a good play online because it seems like it hits everytime on the river. Paid off for me too, but at that point it didn't feel like poker to me anymore. Just seemed like it should be called "See If I Can Get Lucky".

I feel your pain.

It only seems less live because you see much fewer hands.
