poker pro - hardest job there is?

40k hands a month doesn't sound like that much. Are you still in school or do you have another job?

I do agree it is near impossible to play more then 2-3 tables and have any meaningful conversation with anyone. But I do over 40k hands a week and still have time for an active social life and GF so I'm not sure what the issue is. 6 tabling it you shouldn't be playing more then 3 hours a day.

40k hands a weeek? Ummm. You're obviously very new to poker. Come back in a couple of years and tell me you play 40k hands a week.

I've been playing as a pro for 3yrs now... I know a lot of pros... 40k hands a month is probably just above average for a pro. I would say between 30 and 40k is about average.
