Go to a casino or go to an online cardroom.
The reason why pros get action is that the geese run to the axe. Just one player playing over their limits against eight strong opponents will make it worthwhile for the strong players to play with this guy and each other.

Casino --> Rake
Online --> Rake + deposit/withdrawal fees + cannot physically read opponents + possibly rigged.
I broke even in my online experience, but only because of the times I had my opponents just where I wanted getting lucky. Ie: I have AK, flop is AKx, I trap my opponent to go all in with his KQ and will hit runner-runner. Or, I am showing aggression going all in in almost any preflop stealing blinds late in a tournament, finally get delt KK, only raise 3 BB, one player reraises me ALL-IN hoping that I would fold against his pocket 6's. Instead he will hit his 6 or even a 7543x board.
But live Poker is different: just because the board reads something like QQTTx and I hold a T doesn't mean my opponent MUST ABSOLUTELY, in spite of checking the flop and turn, have a Queen somehow magically. I would be able to read that in real life, not online.
