This might sound out of the blue for a few ppl but it's something thats been brewing a while for me. I'm in the last 5 months of a degree that I've been doing for nearly 5 years now, enough said on that factor. There are other reasons for the break too though.
Firstly, the more I hear about successful players on forums the more I realise that they are extremely hardworking people, I can't be with regards to poker atm.
Seconly, online poker has become a big escapiest tool for me in recent times that has prevented me from getting the most out of my life.
Thirdly, I can't afford a bankroll atm to play the games I want to play.
Finally, I need some time to reflect upon where I'm going with this game and how much time/effort I'm willing to give it in the future.
I will still be playing live (once or twice a week max) but the aim is not to play online at all until my degree is over. Good luck in the new year to everyone else!!! See you at the tables (live) :)
