Can you actually make money playing poker? I mean like A LOT of money?
 
I am looking to see how much money the pros make. I mean, can you make 50k, 100k+ per year in PROFIT? I know some people play poker as a living. For these people, how much do you make in profit and at what limit? How much time do you spend?

Do not respond to this post unless you have played more than 50k hands.

Yes.

Nope. And don't let anyone tell you differently.

I played my 50,000th hand just a few minutes ago by the way, so it's all good.

Lol, 50k hands. Online pros count their hands in the hundreds of thousands and millions. Hell, Even I've played almost 300,000 hands and I just play part time.

Dunno if you consider this a lot of money but I have played 7,500,000 ahnds and average $1,900 per hour. Multitabling makes it so much easier (I 18-24 table 6max, depends on my mood).

Peace

Yes, you can. Yes, people do. I don't want to discuss my earn, because I'm weird about it.

I hope you are kidding - 18-24 tables 6 Max - don't believe it (although that would only be .65BB/100.....)

24 tabling 6-max? you do this on your own? I don't see how you could do this without constantly timing out.
