Have You Ever Considered Quitting Poker?

[Inabit]

I've never considered quiting Poker but I have taken plenty of breaks which has allowed me to spend more time on other hobbies/games, but I always come back to Poker.

 

[ficticius]

Sometimes yes. When there is a bad streak I thought about it

 

[pentazepam]

I HAVE quit several times.

But sadly: you don't quit poker - poker quits you.

 

[Wega85]

why would you quit poker when you have freerolls

 

[silentshowdown]

I have quit playing poker several times in the past because of poor performance and frustration. Sometimes I took a break for a whole year.

Now I have returned with better preparation.

It feels unfair when a reckless player wins against your preflop all-in with KK by holding A4o and hitting an A on the flop. But that's poker.

Whenever I lost to a weak player, I would tell myself: that the maniac would survive, at least for now. We have to reward them for that, so they repeat the same strategy over and over.

No, I'm learning and that gonna give me the tools to be a winner player in the long term.

 

[Stringy]

nope never thought about it. i'm enjoying the ride

 

[yuriko oyama]

I just think that this is poker, and if I play it is simply because I want to, otherwise I can do something else.
Suffering too much or complaining never changes the nature of things.

Sometimes I am also not satisfied with my results and sometimes I also regret that I wasted a lot of time. But in general, for me, poker is primarily entertainment. I don't count on income from the game, so the lack of any result is not such a terrible problem
..... I have never thought of giving up playing poker, at least not yet, I have no such thoughts.

I dont know what you really mean by quitting poker. I feel like you can never quit nowadays. You are like 3 clicks away from playing it again. I stopped playing for about a year and now Im back again.
