    Default Time to quit the grind

    Poker is too up and down lately so I think Imma call it quits and concentrate on school. I've made 10k in the last 3 months but I'm not satisfied so if any1 wants to flip for 10k PM me plz. Buh bye.

    I can't handle the stresses of poker. I will probably continue to post in the commune and might play 1 or 2 $ sngs but "The grind" is too difficult.

    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.
