Agreed.

Although it must be the luck of the Irish for me right now. I have only had a handful of days I did not leave with my full $100.00 (break even) or lost what I had came with.

I also agree with you on it feeling like a job. If you go a few days back to back, especially when I used to play 6+ hours in a sitting. It would feel like a fucking job. Driving over there, and sitting there, and all the run through to make your money.

I have played with some the night and early morning, when home, slept, worked, showered, and went back and they are still there 18 hours straight trying to win. when I came back at noon today. There was a granny just today in fact who was $500.00 down and trying to break even. When I came back at noon today. She had been playing since 6P Friday night. When I took off at three, she was almost even. Maybe down $100-125.00.

Fucking crazy.

I am sure many have tried for say 30 days. But you have to be pretty good or play fairly high stakes to make your time worth it after those 30 days and thats if you are in the black, heaven forbid after 30 days you are in the red. That's what breaks most guys. They try and realize it is way too time consuming.
It sounds an like newbies trying to make money online, or in porn. They try for 30-180 days with their scripts they paid almost nothing for, using the same over saturated content or sponsors, chasing the same traffic as everyone else with a budget the fraction of their competition, and if they do not make millions they give up.

Funny how that works.
