Jeff,

Thanks for replying. You are most likely the highest earning player in this thread, aside from maybe Timex. Why do u feel this way? Clearly your outlook on the game has changed from a year ago, i was wondering if you mind expanding on this a bit.

Is it your personal skill level you question? Or just the state of the game given the legislation?

Inquiring minds....

state of the game. players getting better, no guarantee for a future for online poker. Also if I had $2m on top of my current net worth I would have so much expendable money that I could do so much with.... + the opportunity cost of all those hours playing poker. Also now that players are slightly better so much is variance and luck, meh.

probably like 20M

might sound ridiculous but pretty sure if i make it to 40 or 50 i will still be playing live HSNL or similar for fun/mental competition, so even though i feel like i can't wait to get to the point where i feel i have enough money to escape having to grind all the time/playing for a living if i'm honest with myself it would take a LOT of [censored] money to get me to quit something that not only satisfies my obsessive need for mental competition but rewards it with the spoils.

even though i often feel like i only play poker at the moment for the money, i'm pretty sure if i live the life i want to live and spend a bunch of time doing non poker things in my thirties, by the time i make middle age poker will be one of my favourite things to do for fun. so yeah, a truckload of money or just let me play pls.
