I insta-called btw b/c the force is strong with me and I sensed he was FOS

August is so sweet, I'm running break even after 30 hrs of live play in 4 days

awesome

[daveymck]

So based on what people are talking about NL200 making 7k a month is pretty doable if you put the hours in.

With rakeback I calculated its between 30-40k hands a month which even 4 tabling is doable with a few hours play a day.

Does this seem right to you guys?

My contract ends in Sept and I am thinking of packing in (there would be a renewal till christmas) to take the rest of the year off. My alternative would be to take the extension and stay working till Christmas trying to finally crack 2/4 (probably with some coaching) and taking off 3-4 months of next year (and beyond if things went well).

I think I'm going to start doing this. My job sucks. (and pays less)
