Default Re: playing for a living

I'm a college student and trying to make the transition to making all my money and living expenses off poker. Right now I'm home for spring break, got a job as a bank teller working 8:30-4:00 everyday. I go home, get changed, workout from like 5-7, then play poker from about 7-11/12 during the peak hours every night. I think this is the safest/most effective way to make the transition. Then eventually through playing thousands of hands and building up my bankroll and bank account once school starts I will be doing the same thing except classes during the day so I wont have the $$$$ making job.

Start off at low limits, try it for a few weeks, you might get bored of poker, and do not play out of your bankroll.
