I guess that depends on what you mean by "successful." If you mean, making a living at it, I do not know anyone that does that. I'm sure some people do, I just don't know any of them personally.

I feel that I am successful in that I enjoy playing, win enough that I never have to make deposits, and I take regular withdraws. I don't make anywhere near enough to live on, but I get paid to have fun. And I would call that a Success!

How about you?

Interesting argument about successfully poker player. I mean , everyone who makes profit from playing any tournament, can call himself a successfully player.

I have quite a few friends who play poker. But only one of them has good results. For example, he won about $ 2,000 this year.

I have friends who play poker, but they all consider this game to be just fun or a hobby.

Hi.
I have a friend who has been playing poker for about 10 years and earns a regular income of $ 600-700 a month. I am convinced this game can generate revenue.
Good luck.

Of the people I know and see, no one has earned money in poker, but there are big victories among them. On the forum, I am familiar with several players who have a steady income from playing poker. But personally, I never saw them.

Depending on what you consider to be a success in poker. I have been playing poker for 10 years. At first it was just a hobby, fun. But then I managed to get some good wins, and I realized that in this way you can make money. For the last 3-4 years I have a stable income from the game.

There is no doubt that in poker this is a success, albeit a small success.

I do know a couple of friends that started out on local poker houses (back in my last city) that started doing well nationally and are not hard to be found on those final tables of the Brazilian Series Of Poker.

I have a friend who moved to germany 10 years ago and only plays in the casino. From what he tells me now, he makes a living from it, but he endured a lot until he got to where he is now. He is satisfied with himself and his earnings. We two were schoolmates and I can say about him that he had "cold blood" in him, he doesn't like halves of the measure and he recovered very quickly after a failure. When I talk to him, jokingly, I challenge him to a poker game when he comes to visit ... he takes it seriously and warns me to be careful how I manage my money that he does no favors to anyone! :))

Unfortunately, I don't have many friends who are into poker, but one of them is quite into it, develops strategies, and plans to make it his job. Plays even at NL25. I wish him good luck. He is my university friend.
