Does anyone else feel that poker screws with ur concept of money. i feel kinda funny that if i dont make 200k this year, i feel like im not moving up and consider looking for some type of job where id move up. i have months over 5 figures consistenly, but constantly seeing others blogs , making millions a year, i feel the need to be unsatisfied with where im at cause there is so much more to make.

1 example had a 2k downswing, where took fw bad beats, but didnt play well. told my friend, he was like well what u down for the month, im like dude, still over five figures, and he laughs and me and nicely tell me to fuk off lol./ says i have no concept of money, and need to change that? anyone else feel this way, being that ur throwing money into pots left and right,

Also if u do, do u often tend to play differently because trying to make more in a shorter time, forcing the issue? this always happens when i see a blog of CRers and brices graph and leatherass blog.

i guess the one thing i learned is to remember blogging is alil one sided, because people blog more when they win then win they lose, so i should jus stop really reading them and stick to playing.

also what do u think the percentage of players who are pro make, IE 200 nl/pl 400 nl/pl 1k nlpl, without rakeback, i m curious to if my numbers are way less than what im assuming. thanks for semi vent, and any answers to questions be appreciated

man you just need to compare yourself to yourself. THere will always be someone that makes lots more money in any field in life, unless you are bill gates. Just work on improving your own game and your own results. Why do you care if some random guy on the internet made 2 million last year?

Not really, I'm a total life nit!

Also $$$ are just poker tokens to me. I think there is a £1/£2 game running in my city every Friday but I would have to take like £500 or something so it's not going to happen. $1000 would not be a problem at all.
