I will offer you a little more encouragement. I think it’s contradictory of many posters here to imply you can’t make money, when I’m sure they would all agree that it is a game of skill. If it is a game of skill, then if you are better than others, over a period of time, you will make money.

Having said that, I think it would be very tough to make a decent living below around 5/10, but you can learn how to play.

Take these skills to a higher level or to a casino and I think there is money to be made. Though, there’s probably easier livings to be made.

Good luck.

Have you found out what happens to post counts when we go to vBulletin next month? I don't remember if they transfer or not.

hi second toughest, i don't think anyone is implying that you can't "make money," since it's clear that the microlimits are beatable. i think people are saying it's very difficult to "make a living" ie. make enough money to support yourself as a job.

right around the time your avatar and location changed.

I think it is possible to make a living playing .25/.50, though it would be the minimalist of wages. I currently play 6 tables at a time and have a winrate of about 3bb/100. This adds up to an amazing $6/hour wage. I think I would kill myself if I tried to play these games anywhere close to 40 hours a week.
