to win a Sunday million is the dream of my youth to this day
It is nice to have that dream. I live in the U.S. so I cannot even have that dream right now. Just remember that many poker "pros" have this dream also. The Sunday million is a huge tournament with many recreational players BUT also, very many good very good players, Keep your dream alive, but also keep playing your regular games too and not just the "big" one.
Good Luck and I hope you do achieve that dream 1 day.

I think that online poker is more for fun and amateurs. If you want to become a professional, you need to play offline.

As in everything in life you can like something, but becoming a professional in the area depends on many other things. But that doesn't change your love for the thing.
I love poker !!!

hello, I would say that more depends on the psychological component than on mathematics, because it is she who is responsible for development and progress in general

cool for you, so soon you will get to the freeroll club, but believe me, it is very easy to fly from there, so you need to seriously think about the quality of the post, no offense

almost all modern pros started their careers online, earned money, and then you can go offline series

Now I have an understanding of this, at the time of the publication of the post my mind was less mature and more offended

hi all , to be honest if I was playing poker only to support my family, the pressure would be great, and sometimes when we try to force results/hands etc, bad things happen and we lose, in my humble opinion I'd say start off as an amateur, working a job and playing poker in the spare time, then once poker earnings are steady and over taking the day job ones, then can be a good time to change to pro, myself I'd wait till poker earnings are at least 5x of daily job earnings

I have on some occasions won satellite's into bigger buy-in games and in one I actually made the money and won over £200 not a lot, but massive for a player who only played free-rolls and 25 Cent games.
The best part is I don't even remember what place I finished? I know I was in the top 50 but exactly where I don't remember. But I do remember the games where I finished in 1st place and won the top prize payout in Free-rolls and it has never been more than a few dollars.
What I am trying to say is the WIN! Is far more important than how much you WIN!
Poker is a fun game for me, and I don't care how much I win, finishing 1st is far more gratifying and important than winning money.
When the fun Stops, STOP!

Poker certainly isn't for everyone, and even people who do enjoy it can definitely overwork themselves. When it comes to going pro: as the saying goes "poker is a hard way to make an easy living". It becomes a job just like any other - and a socially isolating one, too, if you primarily play online.

I had a similar plan, but it is not always possible to combine poker and ordinary life. Often we transfer our mood from ordinary everyday life to professional life. This negatively affects both the game and everyday life. This applies not only to poker, but also to any professional life, I think many professions have a similar psychological problem. For example, working as a policeman or a rescuer carries a strong psychological load and it can be very difficult to switch to everyday life after an event at work. Poker is a challenge to yourself. Prove to yourself in all aspects what you are capable of. This discipline, psychology, learning, self-control and much more in the aggregate gives a result, and whether it is positive or not depends only on ourselves.hi all , to be honest if I was playing poker only to support my family, the pressure would be great, and sometimes when we try to force results/hands etc, bad things happen and we lose, in my humble opinion I'd say start off as an amateur, working a job and playing poker in the spare time, then once poker earnings are steady and over taking the day job ones, then can be a good time to change to pro, myself I'd wait till poker earnings are at least 5x of daily job earnings

na verdade é o seguinte se você quer ser um jogador profissional de pôquer hoje esqueça, esqueça, no passado era mais fácil para o pôquer, não havia tantos jogadores bons, que aproveitaram o tempo ok hoje, mas eles não viva no pôquer hoje! eles ganhavam seu dinheiro e viviam da venda de cursos e outros. e jogar para se divertir é hobe hoje. simples se você gosta de jogar pôquer com um gasto lucrativo, mas não invista dinheiro nisso.
