Yeah but you`re going to need a strong mental game, gambling can became an issue. And also acknowledging when to stop, sometimes variances will go against you in important times all day long. I agree that patience and hard work is what will recompense the investment in long terms, in the end that's all that matters.

Can you make money playing poker? Yes you can, but unless you're playing for rent money that shouldn't be your motivation. I've been playing for many years with decent cash results (tournaments are another story) but the amount I've won is not important and certainly nothing to write home about.
So then, why do I play? I love the game, it's fun, but what makes it fun for me is the mental challenge of always trying to improve. I spend hours per week, thinking about it, reading about it, watching it. It's a hobby, like painting, or knitting, and like any hobby the results are not as important as the effort.

I used to make around 10USD/hr but the variance was insane. And I think at the limits I was playing (1/2 NLHE, 3/6PLO8) it was not really worth it. That was 8-10 years ago.
I'm sure the game got a lot tougher nowadays (and the rake higher) and only with a lot of multi-tabling will you be able to make a decent living in my opinion.
I'm now just into it for fun once in a blue moon.

I do not play cash games. Usually I play in tournaments with a buy-in of 1-5 dollars.

I play in a crazy game of PLO at intertops poker that is very beatable most players there are limpng with any 4 while I have a range of top 15 starting hands I have been buying in with $100 in the .50-$1 game and walking away with $300-$600 from the table sometime in 30minutes sometime in 1 1/2 hours if I stay longer sometimes I walk away with $1,000 at a time only because I play like a nit at the game. when I cash out I move down to the low tables. The .02-.04 PLO8 tables and buyin for $4 and leave with $20-$40 by the end of the night the most I lost was when I ran into set on set one night was $50 and I won it right back and more beucase the game is so jucie there at Intertops.

In online poker you could make enough money to retire early.

I'd like to make money with online poker but cold fact is money(and skill) makes money if you have little money its a long time to build up the skill in your game play...
Freerolls Help but wont make you a millionaire.
Have Fun... dont think about the money too much, obviously "Stop when the fun stops" no pressure and don't mortgage the house to play your next tournament... remember its a game of chance... the best are not the best in every game or hand of play.

Hi.
I agree with you. Basically, the money that I win in poker, I use as a buy-in in my interesting tournaments. And, as a rule, money that was easy to get is also very easy to spend. But I try to stick to the bankroll manager system, and because of this, my expenses do not exceed my financial capabilities.
Good luck.
