How does one Qualify to become a Pro, & Who (m) \"Anoints\" the Pro.
 

When does one Qualify or Officialy becomes a Pro. Is it through winning at sanctioned Poker Tourney's / Cash games, (WSOP, WPT, Various Card Rooms)cash games other than the Sanctioned Games? Is there such an entity as a Professional Poker Board, (like the American Bar Association, Medical Board,) etc..? May sound like silly questions to some, but I don't know!!, thats why I'm asking.

In Vegas, you must be approved by "The Matador". He runs that town...

Most "pros" I know don't care about the distinction of being a pro or not.

I think you have to have endorsement deals.
