I have a friend who is exactly like that. He used to think just like that about poker, but then he started and now he can't stop. He's read everything about poker and is a great player. I understand that thought process but it's a little limiting when it comes to enjoying life. Wouldn't it be better to learn how to control ourselves once we get involved?

Of course self control is preferred. Some of us have less ability to do that than others.

Indeed. Self-awareness and acting accordingly are paramount. What ultimately shifted my friend's focus away from poker was the arrival of his daughter!

That’s great. You reassess a lot of things when you have kids.
