Yes every time I loose, it just crosses my mind but I never really stop. I always keep on trying to be better at the game, but is hard. I may quit for a week take some time of but never though of stop playing for ever, but I do think and can tell you that I will never will STOP playing that I do tell you and I know.

We have never thought about stopping playing, it's normal. The important thing is the reason, if it affects your personal life in a negative way for some reason I think, that you have to seriously think about it

Even though I don't think poker will be my final main career, I do enjoy the lifestyle and the action. I mostly play at brick-and-mortar casinos so YMMV. Whether online or offline, accession on those tables can seem like watching an episode of GOT. Everyone trying to get to the top and so many ways of going about it.

You need to take a break. But you always want to come back after days or weeks

Hello.
I did not think to stop playing. I love this game, so if I have free time I play, if there is no time I do not play. Everything is simple.

I play poker for fun. At the moment, I think, is it worth to play again. I have 3 days ago, it was $ 105 for one day I was 21 $. The next day I lost all my money. And all this happened because of the fact that I moved to the larger limits :mad:. Now I think if I start everything from the beginning?

I never thought about stopping playing poker. This is my passion. I will play until the end of my life. Recently, I prefer to go live - it gives me a lot more satisfaction :)

I play poker as hobby for fun so i do not intend to stop anytime soon. On the contrary - i am trying to gradually improve my game so that i earn some money also but as the free time is not much it is slow process. Sometimes i do not play for few weeks if i don't have free time but dropping the game altogether definitely is not on my list.

I lose way more than I win even to the point where I lose my modest bankroll but I keep playing. I love the challenge of poker and will never stop because its a hobby I enjoy.

Most definitely.
I've stopped playing poker for a profit without a "bankroll". Too much stress with nothing to show for it.
I travelled to a couple countries & played live poker for some time, with 10-20 buyins, worst decision I've made.

Yes, when I'm in a cycle of bad luck, when I'm tired, deconcentrated, in a bad mood, nervous, and when I feel like I'm playing badly.

Because it is a game that I love, I enjoy the moments when I win and I take the defeats as new opportunities to learn.

So far I have not thought about stopping playing.

Greetings.

Never really thought of stopping poker yet... especially there's many freerolls now.
I have fun playing this game... Unfortunately, I have more loss than win.

I do not even think of stopping playing poker! It's a nice game to give up on it just because of bad bad luck or losing some money! I have enjoyed joy in poker, strong feelings, ambitions, expectations, thoughts, but most importantly I have won friends! So, my dear friends, I will never give up on poker and you! Good luck at the tables!

Sometimes, when the game is not all goes well, there are thoughts to throw poker. But: playing poker I feel great emotions, different emotions, good and bad. Poker teaches patience and discipline. I have had a case. Nobody at work played this game, just me. In my free time, I offered to play a friend at work. A month later, all the workers were playing poker. We had fun during the game, during the game we talked to each other. This means that poker brings people together in one strong team. This very well I believe

Of course

I guess everyone have thought about stopping playing poker for a reason or another, for me it was because I was not having the results I wanted to have but I decided that if I want to accomplish something I should not stop and I should keep moving forward and keep fighting for my goals so I did not stop but I've thought about it.
