Default Re: Should I go Pro? #132890213 (long)

good thing about going pro would be you'd be able to save up very handsome amount of money as your nest egg at such a young age, and you can potentially increase those winnings by investing them etc. you can always go back to school.

the downside is that you might not enjoy playing poker fulltime. after couple weeks of going pro, I'm not sure if you will feel motivated to put in 5 hours+/day to 9 table. playing multitables of poker is fairly mentally exahuausting thing, and it gets tougher if you do it on daily basis. secondly, you may lose the momentum to keep up with your education or finding a 'normal' job after making $400+/hr.

I think best option for you to is keep playing poker part time, unless you are willing to put in solid # of hands every day (5hr+/day). I think you can manage school/poker fine at same time if you are gonna put less than 3 hours/day.
