    Default Out of a long relationship--affect on poker?

    I feel like a sap posting this, but I figure the guys at FTR are cool enough to understand..

    A little while ago I posted that I had been on kind of a long downswing for the past month, and i wasn't sure why (over 10 BI at 25 NL). I had been a winning player over a somewhat large sample prior to the past month (about 30k hands at that level), and I thought it was because I took about a month off from playing poker. I continued to read articles, FTR threads, and watch some videos, but I figured not playing must have made me rusty. I've played another 5k hands or so since that post and I'm still not doing well.

    I didn't mention that I also came out of a 4 year relationship about the same time I started playing again, and I feel like I'm in some sort of longish tilt.

    Advice?

    my advice is non poker related, but go bang some women.
    this will help your selfesteem, and get your mind of your ex.

    Obviously you can have sex with girls with higher rates when you are winning. I don't think this sex thing is a good idea right now.

    Advice?
    Kill her. She needs to die.

    It's the only way.
