That might explain one of the differences between men and women  |

I feel excited, like betting on the horses.

I've been asked the same by the wife.
I feel connected with characters that share a common interest, like going to a gig or supporting a team. Since I'm connecting I start to feel love. Then I go home and tell my partner I feel loving. She doesn't normally ask any more questions.

I used to play poker on a daily basis back a few months ago and at first I did really enjoy it, got buzzes out of winning etc but then I just found myself playing to kill time. Played my first game in awhile a few days back and it was REALLY slow so I got abit fed up, so I gave one of those blackjack poker games a go on willhill and found it fun.

I feel challenged.
When I win I feel elated to have beaten the challenge.

sometimes great, sometimes so bored i could cry. Love the late stages, i get a massive buzz robing chips and pushing people around and make weird plays.

I really cant abide cash games, Just so bloody boring, I really love it when playing in MTT's i cant really afford to play in (satellite entry or a treat to myself), The later stages of tournaments are just a huge buzz and i think they always will be.
I have just removed alot of my online roll to start playing more live as i've grown a little fed upwith online play (even though i am still winning)

Must be with the wrong woman!! Poker is good, but it aint THAT good! lol As for how do I feel? Online - boored of late - probably why my results have dropped off Live - Just a pure Buzz , plain and simple. The ups and downs are so far apart and can happen so quick - I would guess it is a similar buzz that drug addicts get. |
