been suffering from an ongoing headache for 2 weeks now, went hospital to get checked out tuesday because i was concerned as id had a serious fall from a 10 foot drop on my head while out on the drink around 4 months ago and i stupidly discharged my self from hospital against the advice of the doctor, i got the all clear anyway although no scan was done but i forgot to mention to the doctor that i spend a lot of time playing poker and looking at a computer screen. does anybody else suffer from headaches threw playing to much poker and could this be why ive had a headache for going on 2 week now?

I work with a computer screen all day (as do a lot of people on here, I imagine) so it's difficult to distinguish the strain associated with the online poker and that you could attribute to a regular desk job. Of course, if you don't have a desk job, then yeah, it could well be the poker.
Or lack of coffee.
I sometimes get caffeine withdrawals.
Drink lots of water .... not beer whilst playing.
I had a similar thing a while back. I work in IT so I am at a PC for long periods. Doc said my computer screen and Chair were at the incorrect height giving me eye strain which caused head aches.
Make sure that the monitor and chair is at the correct height.
My Monitor was far too low so I put some books underneath to bump it up a bit. Now don't get headaches when in work.
It explains a lot of your boxing bets
Awesome thread title for an 'alternative' poker diary, spin it into 1 !
im on fire with the boxing lately mate by the way, dont let a couple of bad bets fool you, haha
best spin up? nothing to nuts, nearly went bust and had £7.50 in my account, played a sat into the then £1000 gtd freeze out £33 buy in, won it for £500 then same night took a shot at the 5k roller on a thurs for £110 and won it for £1800, never looked back since.
how id respond to being slowrolled live? well according to chillie who i played the otha day i think im a hardman because of what i post on the forum, i dont think im anything but i take no noncence and i would probably chin somebody if they done that to me if im honest ( outside on the carpark of course :-)
as far as a diary goes maybe sometime in the near future, haha
Keep it going Rock
