I never play with more than I can afford to lose. I currently can't afford to fund my online games so I play freerolls. While the regular freerolls can get ery irritating to play, when you stick it out and play smart you can always get started on the bankroll again.

there are always freerolls and play money freerolls on full tilt (get 500K and you can play a real money freeroll type thing) so no....never quit unless poker killed my family, then i would be angry and stop talking to poker...........

haha, house payment? Why would I chose a house over poker?
But in all seriousness of course I'd quit playing for money if I had to choose between a necessity and poker. Poker is fun for me, I always make sure before I walk in the door of where I'm going to play that I can afford to lose all the money I have in my pockets at the time. Doesn't mean I'd like it if I did, but I have enough that I can walk away with nothing, and still have enough to come back and play the next day. If it came to the point where that money was the last of it and I lost it, I wouldn't be playing poker anymore. Just like it's not good to risk all your money on 27o it's not good to risk money you can't afford to lose. It's just bad money management.

I would say "no". Only because there is plenty of poker out there to play for free.
One has to be able to distinguish between a Poker addiction and a gambling addiction. A gambling addiction will make you poor and hungry real quickly. A Poker addiction will just cause you to get divorced...

You wouldn't have to quit playing, since there are enough freerolls to keep you entertained (and play money, I guess.) If you keep losing money, and continue to gamble away your I-kinda-need-this-to-live-on money, well... you're an idiot.
