I have felt bored of poker only in times when in straight weeks I can not win anything or to get into the crucial and final stages of one tournament. Also, when you try to do everything and can not catch one good hand. That really upsets me. The recovery is simple - get a break of some days or weeks and during that time again my desire to play poker is in my mind, which means I can get back to the action and to have fun again. When I felt bored of poker, I always stop to play.
I don't play poker 24/7 as it were, so I only get bored when I'm in games where the other players take a long time to decide to ultimately fold. Basically slow long winded play, makes me zone out, so I try to avoid those. At the end of the day, bluffing is one thing, but if you don't have a good hands, you're not going to win all hands.
The hands are in the lap of the card Gods...

If Poker had an astrological sign....it'd be a Cancerian because every poker player has a relationship with poker filled with a Mixed Bag Of Emotions. One hour your excited, next your hopeful, by the third hour you exhausted, next hour your pumped, after that your pissed and then frustrated. One day your in love with poker and then the next day if you could you'd choke the life out of it. At some point between all these emotions, at some juncture you'll probably go, "I'm bored, I wonder what Chess is like"! LOLOLOL!!!!!!!😀

I get bored from time to time, I just get tired of it. I find myself getting tired of the variation poker games like spin & go the most. Moral fatigue from over-riding gives physical fatigue from poker.
First tip, stop playing freerolls, play at least at minimum stakes.

Not bored but I do at times become fed up with online poker specifically taking bad beats or playing 10 to 20 consecutive losing hands in a row probabilities seem twisted online.

When I have had the opportunity to play live poker I have always been very interested in the other players, hands even the dealers etc. Online poker however is a different animal. I almost always Multi table other tourneys at the same time while playing free rolls. Even multi tabling cash games but at micro stakes. I also watch sports usually while playing online. If I qualify to play a high end online tourney via a satellite free roll, then I concentrate solely on the 1 tourney.....while watching sports. 🙂
