The switch from online poker to live poker

OK, so I decided to switch from online poker to live poker. After playing poker in Sint Maarten I started to play the higher limits, making real good cash online. On a certain moment I tilted again playing shorthanded $10/$5 No Limit Hold'em at Bodog Poker. This time I lost my entire bankroll, and freaked out about it.

My final play, having the nut flush of clubs, I lost versus a river full house for a pot of about $3K.

That was the last time I played online poker! Period! The reason for this is not really online poker. It's more to do with the type of personality I have. I can play a decent game of advanced poker IMO, but I simply can't stop.

Since I love the game of poker too much to quit, I will move from online poker to real live multi table tournaments in casino's, and the regular SNG sessions among friends. This will save me from loosing my friggin' bankroll every time after building it up.

The past weeks have been great. Poker For Free has grown significantly, and I am actually spending a lot of time with my girlfriend and son, which is great!
