Default Re: Going Pro

The most important question is how well do you know yourself? Things to consider are your comfort level vis a vis risk. Playing poker while working a "day job" is very different from playing poker without that paycheck security blanket.
How self-disciplined are you? Can you establish a routine and stick to it?
What are your plans for social interraction? Don't sell that short. It's integral to a healthy psyche.
I'm self-employed tho not in poker and while the upside can be rewarding the downside deserves serious consideration if you want to take the leap. Self knowledge is vital.
