Poker gems, #186




Haralabos Voulgaris, on Card Player magazine's "The Circuit" podcast, May 16, 2006, as recommended by Shamus in today's post. Story starts at about the 58:40 mark.


I was stuck like $130,000…. I just didn’t want to quit until I got even, because I’m a real sick one when it comes to that. I don’t need the money, but I can’t quit loser. I don’t play bad. If you ask anyone, I don’t tilt when I lose, but I definitely have an issue about putting a minus next to a ledger. So I’ll play like a 60-hour session if it means I can win a dollar. I’ll just keep on going. It’s good for all parts of your life, really.
