Play while driving your taxi.

Your friend announcing that he's "going pro" grinding out the 3.40's really isn't that different from saying: "Today I became unemployed".

Now, if he had titled this.."Re-Revisiting the Gigabet Challenge"..(semantics really)..I might be persuaded to rally behind you.

As it is,..see you at the tables!

Foldem,

That is the second time you have made us laugh very hard. Keep up the good work!

My poker income was at its lowest and I enjoyed it least during the few months last summer when it was my sole source of income. Feeling the pressure of needing the money probably made me play less than optimally. Or maybe I ran bad. Either way it sucked. I would much rather have a job and play poker for fun.

Maybe it will work for you. Good luck.

Whatever you do, don't tell people you're an "Internet Poker Professional" (as listed in your profile). I don't care if it is your main source of income, I don't consider someone who plays $3.4 sngs a professional...and I think it would be embarrassing if someone asked you the stakes you play.
