1) My job won't let me take time off for my birthday, since I already scheduled a week off during the WCOOP. My birthday is 2 weeks later. There are supposedly other people who "already requested those dates."

To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

2. Health insurance sucks.
3. Losing your weeks' paycheck in a day or going without is less stressful than a deadline.
4. Working with other people on a daily basis is over-rated.
5. Banks love to give loans to people who regularly wager large sums of money.

Hookers are business deductions (no hooker = less motivation to play. Less motivation = less money for the business)

Dealer: bencathers has two pair, Aces and Deuces

Few people could sit for hours in front of computer screens handling the frantic pace of 4+ tables at once. Also, consider that social times are when the best games are. I'm pretty darn anti-social and discovering vent was a major +EV for my endurance. With very few exceptions, people need to be around other people or they suffer.

Now you're just being silly. I wish you the best.
The point I'm trying to make is don't under-estimate how much better poker is as a secondary income stream.

8. Mondays
9. Moving to an eastern european nation and living in a bachelor's pad apartment above the strip and one of the hottest nightspots in the world in a country that has free healthcare (at the expenses of ridiculous income taxes which have no affect on you because gambling winnings are not taxed) and playing poker all day long at the UB 50/100NL game for a mere $500/hour (cuz you suck) while the games are hot in American time and then going down to the strip at night and meeting the dark haired goddesses of your dreams while sitting outside enjoying great food and even better drinks in front of the ocean at the slight risk of a sudden and violent regime change in which you could be tortured and killed but hey you gamble so its way worth it would be fun.
Longest sentence in the world.

i totally agree with you, i was just being a dick.
not everyone can support themselves playing poker full time. I am only living off my poker money long enough to finish med school so that i can get a real job installing fake boobs.

There are alot of great things about being pro, but the fact that so few make it in the long run is why i advocate against it.

I think taking the risk and realizing that it is not for you is WAY better than never doing it at all. I could be in an office right now wondering to myself 'what if I quit my job...'
Even if it DOES fail, I feel much better knowing that I tried my hardest and failed, than never tried at all.

3. Losing your weeks' paycheck in a day or going without is less stressful than a deadline.

5. Banks love to give loans to people who regularly wager large sums of money.
|
2) Haven't had to pay it yet, but any constant drain from the paycheck is going to suck, whether or not you realize it. Even if you had a full time job your health insurance would be deducted from a paycheck, you just would never know you had it there.
3) But is it less annoying? Sitting there doing mindless pencil pushing or keyboard typing trying to impress someone who doesnt even care about you or your family, yeah, that sounds like less stress. Tell me you aren't replacable at your job and I'll laugh your face off. They don't care about you, you quit today, tomorrow they forget about you.
4) Or do you mean under-rated? Ventrillo helps me deal with any boredom i get from playing and serves as a way to speak with other 'coworkers.' And I'm willing to bet they care more about you on Vent than most coworkers do. Plus, when was the last time a co-worker railbirded you while typing up that report on deadline????
5) This is a problem, but its not THAT hard to overcome. Building your credit early (especially while in college) is very important. I've got 2 credit cards with 5k max credit limit each, and I've only had one of them for 1 year and I'm just barely 23 years old. I also have co-signed my loan with my parents for my car and live on my own and pay my own expenses. These things build up overtime and, if you show them you have the capital and credit you'll get a loan. Also, it takes 2-3 years of previous tax returns for most gamblers to get a loan, also including an audit of your current year's earnings.
The thing you might have mentioned but didnt is: Being able to cope with a sustained period of losing and having the bankroll and mental ability to get you out of it, and, being able to get out of a sinking ship before its too late. Bankroll management is KEY and if you ever go bust while being pro, you're an idiot.

I dont know anything about this, your statement could be true. But, its like Im in the parking lot of a shopping center minding my own business, giving my wife a beating. And here comes renton, aka Captain Save-A-Hoe, to get in the middle of my business and try to get me arrested. Maybe the bitch got outta line, maybe she deserves to face-catch the back of my hand, maybe not? Either way why do you feel that its your place to stand up and be the hero?
Its a poker forum, he made a post about going pro, since then hes gone busto. If he cant take some jokes and a little ribbing for it, then how is he ever going to suceed at poker? Please stop being so fucking touchy feely.

What is wrong with y'all? I liked demiparadigm. Why are we making fun of him?

I have a few times laready this week, but I shouldn't count...
Anyway, I don't recall anyone bashing the guy here. There were some very honest facts and opinions but no one really went out of their way to be a dick. I think it's good to know who goes busto and such. Demi is someone I always assumed was a really good player. I don't remember why, maybe it was because of all his cool math. To know someone like that can't cut the mustard as a pro serves to show everyone how tough that move could really be.

QFT
I didn't know Demi went bust, I just found the discussion amusing. Demi liked math a lot, I thought that was cool.

FWIW, I am not totally BUSTO...
just had some personal stuff take a big chunk of my bankroll.
I am technically just "underrolled"
and lol @ gabe. The biggest douche on the forum is somehow under the impression that I have wronged people.
Find some examples, and then think about how to explain how it is worse than the crap you spew each day.

To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.
