i think your estimations are way off.

however, i do think that winning $246,500 in a year playing poker is very reasonable if you are good, and put poker before school.

Hmm, so you think at the current state of online poker it's impossible to pull 7 PTBB/ 100 even at 200nl for an extended sample size? Surely this can't be the case.

I'll quit going on about potential winrates after this - yes, 7 is possible while 4 tabling for the best 1/2nl players and a lot of the good higher stakes players if they moved down (though I do think that anyone who can make that can make more $/hr playing 8+ tables), but if you've been playing online for 4 months, whatever your sample size is, if you've been running at that rate it's very likely your true winrate is lower.

Wish me luck

Good Luck.

I don't think the plan is reasonable, but it's good to have a plan. Just be willing to revise it every so often based on the current situation.

if you 12table for 40hr a week and are a good player 120K-160K is possible, 250k is also possible but VERY unlikely

"Background: Started playing 4 months ago, played every level all the way from 1/2 cent nl on stars up to 400nl. Played mostly full ring. Long journey, and have learned to play poker well along the way."

4 months is a long journey? Are you a fetus?

Seriously,nothing is impossible and I hope you do it but you need to have some respect for how hard it is to become good, nevermind an expert.

For now, variance is you friend.

School is a needless distraction. I hate to see so many young guns make the mistake of not dropping out.

do people really run at 5ptbb at nl200+? seriously, didnt ianbarnes post numbers just below 5ptbb at nl200 and this was basically as good as it got? i mean yea its possible, other people could do it, blah blah blah, but does anyone have numbers like this? also, OP, give us your stars sn if you want people to really follow your journey, i have to say im extremely skeptical about you being able to do this though, but i wish you luck
