I have a Balance - do you - revisit 8.7.18

Hi guys and a warm welcome to new players joining Cardschat..

Yesterday-I had a day off from poker, blogging, vlogging and whatever else i do..it felt great.

I drank beer with my ship mates

watched some team called england win v sweden and had a BBQ on deck of my ship lol.

A complete day without poker, enjoying the sunshine and friends and family, today however is a great day as i know i play my best poker when rested and with lots of games upcoming on super sunday..we have a feast of freerolls and this scoykll scoundrel is out to make some friendly mischief!

I wish you all a wonderful day..say hi to me at the tables

I have a balance - do you? Revisit 20.7.18

Hi Cardschat,

so life has a funny way of reminding us at the most inappropriate moments of promises made and priorities to be kept..

Today, i had a plan - it was simple, it was achievable - play micromillions, play CC freeroll and then post on forum - then i decide to start a job this afternoon in my garden, not a water the plants or weed the garden easy kinda job but a full on creation from scratch of a mini garden patio..

so for the past 5 hours, ive been toiling away..and finally i finish, ive missed in the meantime, the CC freeroll ( i hate missing those especially, more so than micromillions) and yet i feel really happy with what ive achieved...

AR AR AR AR - there is more to life than poker (well only just

See my attached photo of finished work..

Hi,

my family and my garden is my best balance. But Poker is a hobby and a balane to my job.

Poker is like a hobby to me! I do play with a bankroll of $0 by trying out a lot of private freerolls!

The middle way is always the best. I strive not to fall into the trap of excess, after all we are charged all the time, being the best in my humble opinion is not synonymous with happiness, if you do not play poker for passion, it is not complete. Greetings to all of the CC

Sad but true, lends and has time to get back.

Hi dear friend.
I play poker and enjoy on extra time. but I support the fact that family is a priority. you need to be with peace of mind to play poker or else the weight will affect your mindset

poker is an addictive game and it is very difficult for those who love to stop playing, the maximum that can happen is that I stay 1 or 2 days without playing and even then it gets crazy to play again.

now I have a lot of free time. my computer is in big repair, and now I do not play, mostly I'm sitting on the forum. but the thirst for the game has already strangled me, because I got access to the club)

We all think we play because of the sensations that gambling brings this moment when you have an excellent starting hand or the combination already collected and you play all in and feel how the heart is beating faster the blood through the veins runs faster in general the feeling of ADRENALINE is like for me excellent and many play to just feel it is not important you lost or won this moment. SHICK .. The main thing is not to run yourself and hold in your hands and then you can and without pants to stay: D

P / s in advance I apologize for the possible clumsy translation of my translator from GOOGLE =)))

If you struggle with some sort of addiction it is good to make this rules for yourself.As for me i almost have no option but to play every day because i need to grow my bankroll and i have goals of making it big through Poker

I play poker when have free time..sometimes could be for few hrs a day.. sometimes cant get on for few days.. rather be outdoors with my kids having fun than having them inside watching tv ipads etc while im playing poker..

albosaltenio · Jul 21, 2018

difficult to complement something with poker because you need all the attention at the tables. anyway I try to play it while I work since I am not very patient when it comes to playing only poker.

renanrcv · Jul 21, 2018

This year I'm living in another city away from the family. The workload is large, but I always try to have 1 hour of leisure a day, at least. In these moments I enjoy playing poker.

The question to think about is what your goal in poker is. Recreation? Pleasure of betting? Poker has become a new addiction? Become a pro?

Depending on the case, it is not necessary to have as much balance as you speak. It is possible to play 2 hours a day and still give attention to family and work. If you want to become a pro, excess is expected.

If playing to make money, I need to play when it is optimal for me to do so & unfortunately that means playing on the weekend. Luckily my main employment affords me the opportunity to take some weekdays off (which is also optimal/ideal as there are much fewer people out by the lakes on the weekdays

)

I am retired and play poker as a pass time. I like to play free rolls, I have accumulated a small bank roll over the years. Occasionally I will use it to play a cash game or a buy in tournament. I have no delusional ambition to make money from poker.

I feel like you mean grounded from poker, please correct me if I'm wrong.

I pretty much only play poker when my family needs something, I get to grinding and once that monetary goal has been reached I get to "semi-retire" again

however whenever the weather is as nice as it has been for the past week (African temps), I go on STRIKEEEE!!!!

Wow, that's interesting. I'm playing for fun right now, but obviously if I get to a high skill level I do want to make some money.
I'm currently a grad student so the daily labs and books keep me aware of the ground, so to speak haha.
