Low Limit STT pros?
 
Just curious if these guys even exist, I mean, is it even possible to make a "living" playing as low as $5 and $10 tournaments? I wonder what kind of "Earn rate" you cuold expect if you 8 tabled low limit STTs for 8hrs a day.

Also, on a related note, I'm curious how many regulars actually play strictly STTs -- and actually built up from lower limits, that is, if anyone cares to share.

I hope this isn't off-topic, I'm just curious

read the FAQ


the 11s theoretically are the lowest level you can really "make a living" playing, but i dont know of any one person who makes their living playing strictly 11 STTS.

slimbob I think is making a living off the Stars 15+1s, however he lives in Thailand and is working up to the 27+2s.

that is not the easiest thing in the word to do...

IMO you could certainly live modestly supporting only yourslef by just playing $16s or lower...but there's really no reason to stop there..

While you could make a living as a young single person in the $11's, the $22's seem to be more of a sweet spot around here. The competition is still quite weak and the pay is obviously better.

Most people do tend to move up as bankroll grows, though, for obvious reasons.

.2 (20% ROI) x 11 (buyin) x 50 (games/day) x 5 (days/week) x 52 (weeks/year) = $28,600. Not bad. I won't be doing much better when I start my teaching job. If you could do that, though, why not move up and make more?

Guess it depends on personality. I will never have a boss and work with a bunch of morons if I dont have to. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
