Cool, so are you currently in a process of learning Stud? If yes, what materials/sources are you using?

Different sources. Bought Super System 2 and Mixed Games book, have subscriptions for RIO and DeucesCraced + playing as much as I can.
Week 8 of Bankroll Challenge #2
Running stupidly horribly in cash games. Even had my worst session in my career on livestream - 170BBs. I know that doesn't seem much, but I always used software that would stop me from playing, if I'm down 100BBs, so I never had sessions like this. At least not that I can remember. Of course in terms on $ it's not even close to my worst sessions.
I did a little better in tournaments, tho.
Week 8
Hands: 2165
Tournaments: 5
Cash game profit: -$332,88
Tournament profit: $400,40
Total profit: $67,52
Week 7 BR: $2.368,11
Week 8 BR: $2.435,63 (+2,9%)

It's more like 70km, but yes... Definitely one of the options.

70 ? Then maybe Croatia to the south would be closer. Plus you wouldn't have much problem with the language

What will you do? Move or get a "real" job
First thing that I'll do is... (already doing) Taking a break from poker
Plan is to have one month free for playing video games, reading books, doing stuff, etc... And then we'll see.
I want everything to calm down before I make any decisions regarding my career. After that, anything is possible.Originally posted by kavboj84

Austria is actually closer. For the sake of the argument let's say I'm from Ljubljana. About an hour drive to AUT and hour and a half to CRO.
"First thing that I'll do is..."
That's what I wouldn't do. Altough quick decisions are unsafe decisions. But still, you have an impetus, and wasting time means only losing this.
I'm also interested in how stars handles this as well. You have been a pro team member, yet I wouldn't be surprised if they just let them go with the market, as all they want is profit nothing else, but still... there is some sort of dignity,an etiquette of breaking apart in general. I wonder if the alert window you posted was the last thing you got from stars for your efforts, or you received a "good bye package" ?

I would agree with you, if I were making a business decision only, but I'm not. There's stuff I need to consider which I don't share here and are (mostly) personal. So it's not only a question where and how I'll play poker. And I'm in poker for more than a decade now. I think I can take one month off

Can't talk about details, but I really don't have anything bad to say about PokerStars and how they handled this situation.
Hello Mr Steel.
Awful to see you can't play cash at the moment. 
I do hope you find a way forward on this. But I guess for the time being a break is equally welcome. 
What games are you thinking of playing in the meantime? (WOW? Mortal Kombat etc...) If you find yourself at a loss how about a FL tourney? We haven't had one for a while. 
Regards
Matt
