I just wish I could be one of those 17 year old who never had to get a job because they came from a rich family and now there in 11th grade making 25k a month playing online must be nice.

what does having a rich family have anything to do with making money at poker. are you retahded

[/ QUOTE ]


It does allow someone to have the luxury of more gamble with their bankroll in ways of shot taking and moving up.

And you have tons of free time to play, which is (in my mind) clearly the biggest asset to a developing poker player. This summer I worked 35 hours a week for $7.50 yet still managed to increase my BR tenfold playing sngs/cash...imagine what I could've done with those extra 35 hours a week to just grind.

I'd be playing at least NL400 right now rather than NL100...my roommate was in the same situation as me BR-wise at the start of the summer and he made like 12k over the summer without getting a real job. I made about 4k from $300 at the start of the summer grinding $6.50 sngs and NL25 and moving up as my BR allowed (oh yea won some donkaments for about 1/3 of that money).

[/ QUOTE ]

Hmm, what? Why'd you take the job at all? Reasonably competent bacterial forms can make more than $7.50 an hour playing poker, even at 25NL.

Living with my parents, who disapprove of me playing online poker. It blew ass.

I've basically been paying for my own college (junior at UMD now), so yeah, there's another example of why coming from non-rich parents has hindered my poker development.

Grow a pair and move out then.

Stop looking for excuses as to why you are a failure, its all on you.

you dont know [censored] about me homes it aint that easy sometimes

edit: and I'm not complaining, just explaining the way I see the situation. If I cared that much I would drop out of college and play more, or have cut back on my hours at work this summer. Thing is, when I run out of money for school I'm going to need my parents so I can't just burn that bridge a la "[censored] you im going to be the next wpt star"

For real, that's weak trolling. He gave no real specifics about his situation. For all you know he's a sophomore in high school. He should move out then?

Lolz you weak ass troll. I did no sleuthing and that was the point. You shouldn't say ridiculousness until you have. And if YOU have, that means you're like e-stalking him or something, and that's kinda creepy, you dig?
