Can Poker Be A Career ?

Its not easy or every1... I think its possible if you try, im no pro but I definitely know it can be done, and seen my friends go big and go broke too. I think its about seeing more cards whether its live or online. Good luck.

Can i persue it as a career mind you my monthly income is 200$

If your goal is a consistent $200 a month or more income, then it might take some time but is definitely possible. Read some of my earlier posts to see how I did it and am still doing it. I'm pretty much making that much or more a week.

I guess it depends on your goals, but anything is possible. The upper echelon of players have put a tremendous amount of time into the game to achieve their status.

I think you can make poker a career if you are dedicated. But, to begin with, whilst you are building up your bankroll and poker knowledge, I would have it as a side income. An income of $200/month is a great start and shows you are a winning player, but it depends where you live and may be low to sustain yourself long-term.

why not. If you are not standing still, but are constantly learning and doing well, then you don't need to stop.

A career in poker is the same as walking on a “minefield”. On freerolls, you can not make a career. Additional cash bonuses -yes, career - no. Just read the statistics - almost 96% of poker lose. Poker is a fun hobby.

And about 96% of the statistics, I do not really believe.
