    <p>Nice story dhubermex ! I think was very difficult to take some decisions especially when you lay down your poker hungry for your family. Well i have friends who don't have this power. Even if they don't have families. But they lose friends, jobs etc. I'm a new poker player. I like to play but i never be catch in such gambling problem. There are days when i win cash for a pizza and days when i lose money for a pizza. But nothing more. Is true that i'm not to good prepared for online poker because maybe if i know very well the game then i maybe play for great sum of money. But i like this way. To play short limits...Anyway is a good story I'm happy that now you're a good poker player and with good relation with your family. Thanks for your advices maybe in one day will be useful. Regards!</p>

    <p>Good read. I've been yo-ing recently.I find when I'm in the zone, my reads and moves are great. Problem is when I play when I can't be bothered and start to throw money away. Last month I was on the bubble about to win $240 and pushed to collect the blinds. My thinking was I'm here to win. Jeez any other normal-person would wait for 5 mins to collect the money. We all sometimes forget the value of money.Its tough to make a profit in poker. Over 95% are losing players.</p>
    <p>Now Ive cashed out like 2k. I'm gonna start from the bottom $65 in both PS and FT. Then work my way up . Bankroll management is essential. </p>
