Even though there is no money involved with GPOKR, there is alot of time and attention given to the month-long marathon. With some people playing 300-500 hands per day, I wondered if it bordered on obsession or even addiction. Take a look.

Repetitive behaviors or mental acts that the person feels driven to perform in response to an obsession, or according to rules that must be applied rigidly.
The behaviors or mental acts are aimed at preventing or reducing distress or preventing some dreaded event or situation; however, these behaviors or mental acts are not actually connected to the issue, or they are excessive.
In addition to these criteria, at some point during the course of the disorder, the individual must realize that his/her obsessions or compulsions are unreasonable or excessive.

There are many different theories about the cause of gpokr obsessive-compulsive disorder. The majority of researchers believe that it is some type of abnormality.

For some people with OCD, these obessive counting and re-counting tasks, along with the attendant anxiety and fear of no gpokr, can take hours of each day, which can make it hard for the person to fulfill their work, family, or social roles.

okay...my refill time is over..GOTTO GO!!!!!!
