Woah massive derail here, sorry if i sparked any of it but i think both gdrileyx and stu both make good points. as much as we poker players like to tout it as a game of skill, there is still a luck element to it and its still gambling, and gambling addiction can be very serious.

with that said, regardless of when gianni started playing, hes of legal age now and his money is his business. nowhere did he say he wanted to quit school in order to become pro or anything of the sort, and there are certainly worse things to do with your free time then play poker. before this  thread gets outta hand, i think theres 3 things we can all agree on. 
1) Priorities - work/school/family/friends all come before poker
2) BR Management is important both to keeping you in the game and from developing an addiction from the rush of big up/downswings
3) poker is for fun, so if its ever stressing you out, take a break for a few days/weeks/months/years, whatever you need to feel 100% again. part of the beauty of the game is that there will always be another one.
