Since Last June I have cashed out 4 times
$800
$3000
$2000
$900
I have never played more consistently than I have over Covid. I will say during that same time period I have deposited the following
$25 = 13x
$50 = 8x
$100 = 5x
$200 = 2x
$1625 deposited
$6700 Withdrawn
So I have profited $5075
I have played multiple NL Hold'em... Turnament, Sit and Go's, Rake Games and Head to Head. I win most at Sit and Go's, but my big money has come from Tournaments.
I will say, that even though I am in the green. I still don't feel confident enough to say I could do it professionally.
I played a friendly sit and go with my poker group on pokerrrr 2.
hands like the one I am going to tell you about tell me it is still luck first! Skill can get your head so high and still come out in the red more times than not.

My
odds after Flop
Win% = 84.55%
Tie% = 13.02%
Lose% = 2.43%
My odds after Turn
Win% = 84.09%
Tie% = 6.82%
Lose% = 9.09%
River = LOSS
At the point of my all in Mathematically I had a 2.43% chance of losing the hand, yet it still happened. There just are no guarantees in the game, and anybody
tells you otherwise is full of it!
If I was to play that hand again, I would play it the same way. Odds are going Mathematically give you an advantage, but when you are on a bad luck run math means NOTHING!
