Default Re: Play poker for a living? Doubt it. A great hobby to have though.

Sounds like you have entitlement issues. Just because you've read 15 books and have a whopping 6 months of experience, doesn't mean you should be making $4k+/month.

I think it's fairly laughable to play for your food with less than a $10k bankroll and have a proven track record of consistantly beating at least 0.50/1.00.

The games are beatable but the variance will always be there. Just when you think you can't possibly run worse, you will. Hence why 6 months reserves in the bank is an absolute must.

My advice is to drop the entitlement and embrace the variance.
