People who play professionally don't even play freerolls anymore, so if there are any professionals here, there are very few ... or not ??

A very good question for the members of this forum, because in my position I am a player in the process of becoming a semi-professional, dreams come true and I hope that mine comes true, because more than a game poker is my whole life.

Good luck to you in becoming a semi-pro. Do you mind talking about the process? Are you putting in more volume, playing higher stacks, or some combo of them all?

Opinion

To be considered a professional poker player, what must happen?
The number of tournaments won does not make a professional, if not his style of play, however I think it is somewhat risky to live off poker because it is a game of chance and luck and that does not give you a guarantee of winning.

I'm playing recreationally, but I study and practice to be profitable, I try to study and play every day and keep my ROI positive!

I consider myself a recreational player, with high expectations to play at the pro level, but I'm still walking slowly, doing what I can, just playing the buy in that won't affect my budget, ie playing cautiously at low levels, looking to be better than yesterday...

I would even like to be able to become a professional, it takes a lot of dedication, and for that, I have to give up many other things that I can't do at all now. I'll keep playing for fun and maybe the day will come when I find myself a good player and can dedicate myself exclusively. Until then, just enjoying this wonderful sport.

I've been playing since 2010. I don't consider myself a professional, I don't consider myself a beginner either. I play in my free time from my main job for fun with money that I don't mind losing or maybe winning and increasing the bankroll several times.
