Today I became a pro.
#9878849 - 04/09/07 05:38 PM

Today I quit driving a taxi to play Pokerstars $3.40 tourneys. I plan to play at least 100 a day and move up to the $6 within a couple weeks. I'm hoping to sustain my 20% ROI on the low levels. I'll also play $0.05/0.10 NLHE and PLO on the side.

Wish me luck. Or laugh at me.

And why do you like that exactly? It's really not that interesting...

My poker income was at its lowest and I enjoyed it least during the few months last summer when it was my sole source of income. Feeling the pressure of needing the money probably made me play less than optimally. Or maybe I ran bad. Either way it sucked. I would much rather have a job and play poker for fun.

Maybe it will work for you. Good luck.
