Re: Not Mature Enough For Poker

They are much better off studying hard and leeching off their parents.

There are many people who do not have this option. Before poker I was making 6.50$ an hour (college towns SUCK for wages). Hell during my time playing 1/2 I was making 22$ an hour. I would have to work 30 hours a week and I was barely making ends meet (that was only paying for rent/phonebill/gas). I also had very limited time for studying. Now I am making between 1,000$-3,000 a month and have much more free time on my hands for studying.
Not to mention I have a much lower level of stress (despite how angry I get at bad beats still). While I feel there are many immature college kids who think they are a lot better than they really are at poker and continue to lose money and tell others they dont have a problem, for those who are good at the game and mature, poker can be a great thng.
