I think you can win a $1,000.00 a month on average but the real question would be are you skilled enough and bankrolled enough to play that high a level. You also need to remember the swings in poker can be huge at times and you would have to ask yourself can you handle the swings. I play tournaments and have had 40+ tournaments in a row without even coming close to a cash. Tank about a hit to the bankroll and worse my ego.
Good afternoon!
Please tell me, is it realistic to earn $ 1000 per month for poker stars? And does anyone get it like that? Can someone tell me which tournaments to play at?)
I'm sorry for the formulas, yes is it possible to earn from $ 10 a month if you play 8-10 hours a day?

This recent video gives a fairly honest answer to the question "can you earn 1.000$ per month playing online poker".
I would have to think this through, if my goal was to earn 1k a month.
First off how many days do you want to play. Most people work 20 days a month, 8 hours a day.
If you only plan on playing on the weekend, is that Saturday and sunday or just sunday? So weekend warriors would be trying to earn $1k in 4 or 8 days a month.
Divide $1k over 4 days of playing a month, would mean u need to earn $250 a day.
Divide $1k over 8 days of playing a month, would mean u need to earn $125 a day.
Divide $1k over 20 days of playing a month, would mean u need to earn $50 a day.
Divide how much you need to win a day by the number of hours you are willing to gamble gives you an hourly win rate you need to earn to hit your goal.
If I remember correctly, I think a decent player wins 5BB an hour, so dividing your needed hourly win rate by 5, would be the big blind table you would need to sit at.
So if I wanted to win $50 an hour and a good player wins 5bb an hour, I would be needing to sit at a $5/$10 table and to sit at that type of table probably requires $100 or $200.
You would probably want to have 10 to 20 buyins available for variance, so a bankroll of 1k to 4k would be helpful to start your journey
this is a very good simple breakdown ! excellent
With a big enough bankroll and enough skill I don't think it would be an issue. Let's look at it in simple terms.
Let's say you are going to play 5 days a week.
1000 ÷20 = 50 dollars a day.
If you are going to grind out 10 hours you would need to make 5 dollars an hour.
Then let's add in 50% for running bad and variance.
So, if you could make 7.50 an hour you would easily make your 1k goal.
So what is the problem?
I think 1st you need to have a moderate skill set and be able to beat 1 cent-2 cent. You couldn't play any games you like, it could only be the game you could beat.
2nd, you need to have a lot of discipline. It would be deathly boring as the days drag into weeks and months.
I would bet you would hate poker after 3 months. Wouldn't happen?
Doug Polk who I think is one of the best players currently said he doesn't play anymore because he doesn't enjoy it.
There is a way, it is possible, but is it the best decision,
You may be far better off getting a job, making your 1k, and using extra money to play poker you enjoy.
Always fun making money with a hobby.

of course real) even more than that. the main thing is to play tournaments with a smooth structure and a small number of participants - 250-300. to play strictly according to br and not climb higher) refuse satellites and focus on one type of games 6max or 9maxGood afternoon!
