I like the idea , when sb starts having profits from poker gradually bud steadily , if he quits a job only if it's vey exhausting and non productive , with non positive equilibrium in profits or benefits vs damages and hard exploitation , and only to find a better job , even with less money than before , with better health conditions , safety precautions , respect for his age or skills , etc , or start or continue a preexisting family business .
But stop everything just to become a reg who will get all his money only from poker brrrrr . Today you win , tomorrow you won't . Today it's upswing , tomorrow a very big downswing , for many months , Today you have a big win , then many years might pass untill the next win , if it comes again , you never know , not everyone is darwin or lex or ......
Ofcourse to believe you will become a big pro very soon , that's very very difficult , the beaaddest of the baddest ideas , the most catastrophic one . These pros who have chosen this path have sponsorships , have inner circles , one knows and helps the other , it's not easy to become one of their kind , of their network , their ring , their circuit , nowadays it's GTO times , harder ro beome a successfull pro these days than in the pre black friday days , imo .
A good article about Darvin Moon, who passed away recently , his life , the decision he made after the second place in 2009 WSOP Main Event and the $5.1M , to continue as a self employed logger , his previous job , is sth to make most of us , think about and reconsider the dream of becoming a millionaire and leave everything else from our past life , to live at last the great life ..
