Hello. For so long playing poker, which is 9 years, I have always considered poker as a common hobby. Then he threw it, then returned to the game, as is usually the case with many. But today an insight came over me, and I realized that if I had been more serious about poker, I would have been wealthy for a long time. Fortunately, during this time of playing I have a high-quality experience that will allow me to manage my bankroll efficiently without big losses without being distracted by anything other than MTT. So maybe this is just the peak of the realization that with poker it is quite possible to provide your life with everything you need, and after a while go on a well-deserved rest. Good luck and success to everyone.

well, i just hope do it too, some day, i really need it

It's good that you understand your strong point. Did you figure it out in a practical game or is it a psychological aspect of the game. At one time, Negreanu, at the beginning of his career in Las Vegas, also realized that he could bluff at a table where only professionals played.))

me too

in 9 years! there was a different action that made you improve your game! what is the difference between Players 9 years ago with current players

i've been losing money at poker for 6 years
if i worked at a regular job, i would have an apartment, a car and friends
90% of players lose money in poker
don't forget about it

Such thoughts also visit my head from time to time , but then they run me over again and I Wake up ( joke) ! If you see your goal, aim for it! Good luck friend!

Success in the game...

Try it, good luck.

Another thing that is important, is to trust the learning process in our quest of building a bankroll and having a go at it at a pro level. I like the vibe of this post and let me tell you, I've discovered the game 10 years ago, and its only a year ago when I took seriously and I have made massive improvements both skill wise and mentally although I'm not on a great level yet in the way of poker being to me like driving a car or drinking water, I still have to think through stuff. I trust the process completely that I'll get there cause Poker is the greatest hard way to earn easy money and I freaking love it.

You've spoken about insight and realization. Kind of abstract notions. But you haven't said anything about studying which constitute a huge part of skill improvement and progress ! So did you take any time to learn more about poker ? I'd like to know. Good luck...

By what criteria did you define this? You play as a plus or you have a lot of experience and you decided that you are a good player. Very few people can make money on poker.

Good insight, but easier said than done, this is poker ))
I have a similar situation, I know everything about poker, I know which poker I play better, but I continue to play bad poker.
I play tournaments well and I play cash poorly, and that's how I play, I win tournaments and I lose cash.
I guess I'm a ludoman

It's good to be enthusiastic but in this environment many others are too... so, I wish you the best of luck.

I just lost all the money that was in the PokerStars cash register in cash, that's what I'm talking about, I won the tournament in cash lost.

sorry, but I have a different approach to the game. I don’t spend my real money on poker, this is fundamentally wrong! I start with freerolls, the road is long, but for me it is the true poker road.

and still this road is not so long, for 1-2 months difference

experience, first of all, about maintaining a bankroll and then smart and metered distribution of funds on MTT

for 12 years of playing poker, of course, there were training and study by articles ... But first of all, this is my own experience, learning how to distribute and not lose a bankroll is primarily a personal experience with bruises and bumps. Nowhere else can you learn this in materials about poker than from your own experience of playing.

I determined this based on the fact that I can constantly get tickets to tournaments for free! Starting to play, for example, from freerolls or from a poker school, where from the first time I played I managed to take 2nd place in the leaderboard having won $ 75, this is not enough, but if you set yourself a goal with these $ 75 to get tickets to the Sunday storm and if you don't throw money away, but to play only good MTT tournaments, such as the Sunday storm for $ 11, or satellites to them, then after a couple of years of good play, I think you can achieve good results. Especially if there in the Sunday storm for 1 place the amount reaches $ 30,000!

No, I think you just need to learn how to distribute your bankroll and never fold again, playing only by bankroll. And no wagering, passions and nerves. Just distributed, and it is distributed and you play without deviating anywhere. Even the pros do this, otherwise with a different approach they would have no reason to play poker

you can't predict anything in poker, a lot depends on luck and experience doesn't always help, I hope you get lucky and make a lot of money.

Many people think so. Then they throw it again so that they will eventually return. Maybe you can do it. It is possible that you will get the desired result. It's good if you have enough insight and inspiration for a long time.

I hope not for luck, but for experience. If I lose one tournament today, it’s okay, tomorrow another tournament will start. And you can even play a couple of tries a day. And you can also add a strategy to this, for example, earn free in freerolls, and give all the best in tournament tickets. And so, maybe not immediately, but in a month or two there will already be a positive result. And then I would walk around the bush near the Sunday storm, constantly playing it or being selected through the satellite. This is already a bankroll building strategy, and I would recommend running it exclusively through MTT

I thought of everything to play without much difficulty and I managed to carry out my plan. But then I gave up poker, and this is my big stupidity. Now I want to resume everything

Some words of wisdom. We all appreciate enthusiasm but it needs to be tinged with reality. I think the point where the OP got carried away was with the line....

"....if I had been more serious about poker, I would have been wealthy for a long time".

Possibly. Probably not.

I have been playing poker for about three years, and I am convinced that poker can be profitable. I play 3-4 days a week and every time I try to improve my skills and analyze my game. I hope that someday I will be able to achieve my dream and make a living playing poker.

I've also been playing for about 10 years, so it's a hobby. Recently, I have also been thinking about the profit in poker, and I think one experience is not enough, you need to learn. And a lot and constantly. In principle, just like in any other field, if you do not develop, you stand still.
