It has been on my mind for a while, quitting poker.
I've realised quite some time ago that I can't be playing this game for the rest of my life, mostly because I've started to dislike playing poker and it is not something that is going to make me rich unfortunately. The swings are simply brutal and I've never been a highvolume player to get through them easily. I really have to force myself to put in hands which is getting harder and harder. I have no longer any joy in playing or improving my game, which means that the end of poker for me is in sight.

The main reason that I haven't quit earlier is that I don't really know what else I want to do with my life, I still have no real clue about that, although I have some ideas for jobs I might find interesting but also have some different interests/ideas that include travel...

I am also undecided whether or not to go to vegas this year. There is not that much for me to do, I can't play online poker, I dislike live poker and think I can spend money better on other things. However I do love hanging out with everyone in Vegas so it's definately a tough decision on whether or not to go.

I definately need a very long break from poker, I do think I might get back to the game in a couple of years if I don't like any of my other options but right now I just don't see myself putting in any hands any time soon.
