The most important thing is practice, the more you play, the more experience you gain, and of course analyzing the game, watch a training video of good streamers, read a few books, or watch videos how they play professionals, and in modern times you will succeed, the main thing is self-belief, even if you are unlucky hahahaha

I don't think you put the question in the right place :), is there a professional here ?! I do not think so :)
it was aimed for ordinary persons to hear their opinions as in a community we help each other better understand, there is knowledge in reasoning

Good points @messats - well done (y)

I would add that having a good bankroll management is really important too...

Good luck all at the tables $$$

To be a professional you need to make sure you play withing your bankroll. You must be willing to move down when needed and only up when you can afford it.

You also need to realize that being a professional is a business and you need to treat it as one. Just because you have a big win does not meant you can go from a small time pro to a major one.

To be a profesional you need to relize the game is forever changing. You must always continue to work on your game or the game could pass you by and you lose all you money, To pros always work on the games.

Neverending learning and being able to assimilate to your tables, and rethink your game. Also big amount of money to do the proper bankroll management and a very valid time.

It seems to me that the main thing is to improve psychology, stress resistance. Because downswings can last for several months and the main thing here is not to lose the entire bankroll.
