Ive only just started playing again recently after 4 years of very much inactivity at the poker tables. I just grew board of game and the grind and went on to do other things like travel and socializing more out. But now back in love with the game and ready to grind a bit again during 2019.
I did not play poker the longest period somewhere 2 months, it was at the time when I left town for the village and there is no access to the Internet, but then I continued to play poker - but sometimes I take small breaks for about a week, I I think that players who like the game very much and who profit from the game will continue to play regardless of whether they win or lose or move to other cities and countries - they will then continue to play as they already have and the habit of playing the game is -developed!
I quit online for awhile because the federal government shut down the top two sites in the U.S- y'all know what I'm talking about. Then, when the govt took the sites' money, it gave it back to the players. Which meant that the govt was going after the sites and not the players. Which meant that under the Equal Protection Clause, which says that the govt has to treat all citizens equally, the govt could not really go after online players in the future, bc it had not only left those players alone, it actually recouped their money for them. At that point, I felt it was safe to play again online.
Never quit poker, but have taken a break now and then. Played a weekend series that ran for about 3 months both Saturday and Sunday. They had about 3 of those a year. Couldn't wait for them to end to have my weekends back. Site ended up changing hands and played at times more convenient to the Euro crowd.
Really haven't played that much poker since then. Find other or newer hobbies to occupy your time.

Hello friend, I stopped playing 2 ½ years, was because at that time the internet went wrong in my town, my dear Humahuaca. And recently I did not play a week carnival held in this area. I made a thread on the subject. regards

Multiple bad outings
The next day, I lost my entire stack. I was holding a broadway on a rainbow flop and lost that hand to a guy with suited 2&7.
The third day, I lost my entire stack holding Aces full of Kings to a Quad 4. The flop/turn/river was AK4K4.
After that, I stayed away for solid six months.

I was 50$ bankroll and about 4 months I was grinding small fishy and bigger and bigger. I cash out fot 1400$ because too many friends and hobbies. i will be glad to make it and more or less quit but 4 years or 5 years ago back off and on. No serious thing.
