nation i always thought you were older, why do you want to make some this kind of committment to anything at 23, just enjoy your time at the moment and get by.

Yeah really. Way back in 2003 when I was 23 I thought Chris Moneymaker was the best player in the world. I played $5 SNGs on Paradise and worked at FedEx. And now look at me, I play 100 NL for a living!

edit: just wanted to make a point that in the morning if ur not playing you can still sit around and STILL get paid for it.

I'm sure there are a number of people like that and in some ways I'm jealous. Though I'd probably get way bored not being engaged with something I like doing, even if it was an easy $2k a month. There comes a time when if you don't enjoy what you're doing, you're not living.

I took offense at the "crappy associates degree" comment basically.

LOL @ being too lazy to play online poker. WOW.

You're too lazy to walk to your computer chair and click a mouse?? NL200 is too mentally exhausting?

I mean it's one thing to say you don't like online poker as justification for not playing, but laziness makes no sense to me as a reason.

dude, everyone is too lazy to play online poker here. If every winning player on 2p2 played 6hrs a day 5 days a week ...



... i dont know. But they dont.

nation, sorry but none of this sounds like a good idea. You've got what...6 months living expenses in the bank and you're burnt out from poker and the solution is to play an insane amount of poker? That just sounds like a recipe for disaster.

So let's say you make your monthly nut from doing this...now what? Are you going to do it again? You're burntout from poker, the solution should not be more poker.

If you really are burntout and worried about money, get a job (seriously), a real job with career prospects and take some real time off poker. Then gradually reintroduce it by playing parttime and if you still love it go pro again in a year or two.

It is mentally exhausting to play your A-game at poker for more than a few hours at a time and I don't know any pro playing more than 30 hrs a week.

Multitabling Poker takes 10X the mental concentration in a given hour than a typical desk job.

how about trying out a different form of poker? HUsngs are a great way to build a roll and you actually get to play poker as well.
