'Going Pro'- a serious conversation

[Fierce Lion7]

Very true. I have not had Variance effect me that much, but it does suck.

Over the last three weeks, I have had so many bad sessions that it is laughable. I figured I had a few beers and messed up. When I looked at the logs the next day, I played it near perfect.

A lot of these new "pros" became pros because they were doing very well. You made an intelligent observation about how someone earning all of their money from Poker would handle such a down swing.

For the original poster, if he has a record like that 2+2er of amassing 1.6 Million dollars in 18 months, I would say go for it.

If you have only won a few grand, do what these guys are saying and seriously take a mental inventory.

Lion out.
