A time to think...

I recently had a weeks holiday, paid for mainly by this years poker winnings.
A week to consider what my intentions are towards poker.
I love playing poker; Pitting my wits against other players for a few dollars; Enjoying the chat in my favourite forum, the Punter's Lounge.
We may all dream of being a top pro, making masses of money from the game we love to play.

But I am honest, at least to myself, I don't have the armoury, either financially or intellectually, to survive at the highest level.
So I will remain happy to make a steady profit from my poker.
If I can make a profit each month, or even each week, then I will be a happy man.

So Poker will remain, for all intents and purpose, my hobby; I'll continue playing because I enjoy playing, profit or not if truth be told.

I would still like to win the WSOP in London this year of course, but at least now I accept that this is only a dream but, as the song says...''Dreams can come true!''
