I can say I am one of them and funnily enough I just FULLY quit my part time job today it was my last shift.What can you say about the young ones quitting their job and choose to be a poker pro.?
Too bad I got a few K in savings :icon_tongToo bad stores don`t take play money,,,,:thumpdown
They owned the restaurant, there is a lot more than what you see with your eyes to a person's life decisions.Your poor parents. Do they understand what a burden you will become to them?
You don't know what I helped them with in this business.It doesn't matter if they are millionaires. An adult child that they have to support because he is busy trying to become a play money poker pro is a burden.
This has nothing to do with issues or problems. This is about being an adult. A college dropout who plays fake money poker online all day isn't someone parents are going to be bragging about at their country club.
It is one of the most viable ways in modern day to be totally boss-free and thriving from small starting amount. Slave to no one other than the mistress RNG.Most of them would be better off with a job and playing to supplement their income.
Playing poker for a living takes more discipline than people expect. In before 'a hard way to make an easy living.'
Non going to assuming anything I don't know about, just asking basic questions:I can say I am one of them and funnily enough I just FULLY quit my part time job today it was my last shift.
not paying rent was the pay. I know what I am doing and I know what I play play money for. You were the inspiration for it and now you change your tune saying it was all sarcasm.Non going to assuming anything I don't know about, just asking basic questions:
1. Do you pay rent? Other expenses? A few K isn't going to last forever if you consider other expenses (if any) are a factor.
2. Since you'll be spending your savings, you won't be able to save any...so what is the plan if your money runs out/your poker journey doesn't go as planned? I'm sure your parents will give you a job at the restaurant again, but what if they don't?
3a. Since you're still grinding play money, when do you hope to be playing free money? Assuming it takes a month to reach top level of play money, that's a month of not earning income and a month you're still spending from your savings.
3b. Will you be starting with 2nl and moving on up? Or will you jump to 10nl-25nl and start playing from there? If it's the latter, what percent of your current savings will be used as BR? Have you adjusted your living expenses for the percentage of your savings being used as a BR?
if you have good winning rate, and have enough saving for at least 6 months, then it no problem quiting your job.What can you say about the young ones quitting their job and choose to be a poker pro.?

It depends for me because if you suck or just started playing poker seriously and you quit your job already, the odds are against you but if you're good or at least decent and already save some BR before you quit your job and manage your in real life expenses like a good for 2 months budget for food, electricity etc, and you'd only play poker all day every day I think you're good to go and see what happens after that 2 months if you got profit or not.
because you can't just decide that you'll quit your job and try to make a living out of poker No, you need solid plans and you have to try it first for a week or two and see how you do. sorry for my English
and that's just my opinion
if you have good winning rate, and have enough saving for at least 6 months, then it no problem quiting your job.
I need not prove you wrong until I first prove myself right.You're actually playing 'play money'? WOW! I thought these guys were just joking.
You need help bud. Head outside in the sun and let a bit of reality shine in. Even just turn on the lights while inside ... maybe something will wear off?
Instead of verballizing your dellusional fantasies, why not just actually play? After reading your posts I'd be shocked if you can even beat 2nl, or $2 MTT's. Prove me wrong, LOL.
