Default Re: Cash game pros - lifestyle (and numbers) questions

I keep a some what normal sleep cycle: bed at 1-3 up at 9-2 (depending on classes). I played poker full time about a year ago but found out it wasn't for me and I needed to go back to school. Now that I am back in school I play about 50k hands a month.

I play 1/2 - 3/6 6max and 2-9 table with an hourly rate of about 80/hr. (not near my db but that sounds about right)

I just buy things when I want them. I usually cash out about 2k per month for a down payments on real estate and about 1k per month for stock market. Other then that I just run up credit card bills (mostly drinking tabs and food) and pay that off at the end of the month.

The reason I got back into school because it messed with my social life too much and I didn't want that to happen. I am only 21 and was starting to become a loner.

My advice:
Keep social event planned and go out with friends a lot .
and try and keep a good sleep cycle because if you don't, you will find yourself get sick a lot easier.


P.S. WM PLAYGROUND was awesome. I saw it here in MN. [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
