First of all,i think you need to set some more down to earth,achievable goals.
You cant start right away playing 6 tables,expecting to win 70K+ and getting angry with yourself if you fail.You cant run a marathon without knowing how to jog.
Start playing 3-4 tables daily of micro stakes,if 2NL is too small and irrelevant for you then 0,5-10c,but not higher,1 or 2 times a day,each session lasting about 2 hours max.Do this for a couple of months,and if you see that youre making money and could add some table/hours to your schedule then absolutely do it.Prove to yourself that you can beat the micros before setting a 70K goal.
Needless to say that you should stay away from roulette,BJ and all that crap.If some day you win a big amount of money and you feel tempted,just cash out a big chunk(obviously an amount that wont affect your roll for the stakes your currently playing) and spend it on anything but gambling(even if that has to be hookers and blow).
If you have access to Stars,play only there as they dont offer casino games.
If youre from the US,try to find a site that offers only poker and exclude permanently yourself from the others that do.
