Just a thought about the summer job - why not try and get a job for a couple of days a week to both give your dad what he wants, give you a bit of a financial buffer, and to take the pressure off your poker career for a bit? That way you'll always be hungry to play and it won't feel so much of a grind; and it gives you a backup in case one of those inevitable downswings comes at a time when you'd least like it to.

The worst thing in the world would be to have to tell your dad that you've spent the summer sitting in a darkened room for 8 hours a day LOSING money.
