No but because I am in the US. On other sites I average $36.26 an hour playing .25/.5 and .5/1 so I would like to say I could if allowed. Thats not including tournaments as I have not figured that one out yet as I play them for fun and mainly $2 and under with a lot of freerolls so the hourly rate not going to nearly as good.

So i just have to play 27.5 hours on average to make a grand. I grew up on pokerstars before it was taken away from us.

I agree, I wish I was allowed to find out. Hopefully it will be permitted in the U.S. at some point again.

My friend, help me to make this money, because I try in all ways to get out of scratch and only what I get is bad beat, I play the best way, today I do not bluff more like in the past, always looking to train good games and even then I always end up losing. What should I do to make money? I'm sad about my results.

There is no magic formula that anyone can just tell you. I've put over ten years of studying, and failing, and invested hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of loss before ever becoming profitable. You just have to be one step ahead of your competition. The best advice I can give you if you want to be profitable is stop making deposits and play free rolls only. Or budget yourself an amount you can afford and consider the budgeted deposits an investment. If you don't have the edge on your competition you will continue to lose money. I'm not mad I lost all that money, but I wish I had found communities and coaches like CardsChat and 2+2 runitonce, and Upswing and asked the questions and followed the wisdom earlier on. Would have saved myself a lot of money. Even still you have to be studying because the game is changing every day.

Yes, you can earn up to 1000 dollars in poker and more, but for this you need to have a normal bankroll of 100 or 200 dollars and more - so that you can buy normal tournaments for 7-11 dollars and try to get into the bonus zone and win normal money !

I have sympathy for anyone who because of where they live they are restricted where they can play online poker.

At the moment it is impossible for me !!!! For the whole of last year, I earned about $ 1,000 playing at Pokerstars !!! This year I play minus !!! If you ask if this is really possible, I think yes, you just need to put more effort!

yes you can do it , there is a lot of low buy in tournaments with good prizes , i didnt play poker for years and just got back 2 months ago and did won some of them , about my game i still have a loooooot of things to fix that i am working on , i am an average player ( to not say a fish ) , so yes you can do it , get a starting bankroll , keep playing the same tournament ( if you win dont get ****y and go for big tournaments , work on your game first ^^ ) keep improving yourself and results will come naturally. and a really important point that you shouldnt neglect at all is bankroll management sometimes you learn it the hard way by wasting what took you a month to build in just few minutes. good luck to you on the tables. ( i almost forgot mark the players. you will run into the same ones again on the same tournaments , know you competition )

The uncertainty of life. When nothing is right, anything is possible. First of all, the important thing is to see what your priorities are, because you will dedicate to something that is pleasurable. If this is what you want, put it into practice, be prepared for adversity and be happy.

Hello.
I play poker for only 6 months, so I have little experience, but in my opinion it is quite possible to earn 1000 dollars a month. To do this you need to play and improve your game.

I think it is possible. At the moment, I earn about $ 200-300 a month thanks to poker. If it is possible to earn $ 300, then in my opinion it is quite possible to earn $ 1,000.

Of course it's possible, but it is not easy and you need to spend a huge amount of time in studying poker to achive this goal. Regualr job can be better choice than poker for many persons(including me).

Now it's not easy. Today I got a tournament with 86% for me vs14 $% for the opponent. Also 3 more tours with no less than 65% on the heads up. all in the micro stacks. just the players are playing that it is. He changed poker and needs a change in play in the game.

Honestly I feel it's a little bit harder on PokerStars in particular due to the player pool and field sizes being a bit 'too' big.

Your variance is going to be that much higher.

Try following along with Charlie Carrel's bankroll challenge (Or a similar challenge that others are doing) Watch the recap videos where they share their thoughts/tips. This is some of the most direct learning material available, cannot recommend it enough in addition to regular studies as others have mentioned.

Why does the site make a difference on your win rate? Many people make $1000 a month playing poker, weather it’s on stars or not...

I am not sure if it's possible for me but maybe for others, also does the site matter? maybe due to better players on stars but also a lot of fish.
