'Going Pro'- a serious conversation

[Noo Yawk]

A few important considerations:

-How will you handle a major downswing?
-How much do you REALLY know about the game?
-Are you capable of REALLY judging a table, and how your abilities compare to your opponents?
-Do you have enough self awareness to know when to leave a game?

If you want to go pro, realize that big money is an exception, not a rule, even for great players. Most succesful pros are actually happy to pay the monthly nut, and perhaps have a few bucks left over for fun.
