Default Re: Many people go from low stakes to high stakes inside 1-3 years?

1. Playing a lot of hands.
2. Studying the game.
3. Taking it seriously.
4. Balanced lifestyle.
5. Self Control


Most players miss one or more of the above despite being good players.

For me 1) and 4) are issues. Can't really play that many hands because I do have to work and I haven't hit balla-stakes yet, as well as being in college still and having a family. #4 is more related to the fact that I already play a precarious balancing act with the rest of my life. Some weeks, poker must be a side-menu item.\

Still yet, I don't actually hold out any hope of being able to do this. I hope to eventually be good enough to beat $200nl, and that is it. I am half-way to my goal and that is more or less fine by me.
