Default Re: Should You Quit Your Day Job? — Part II

I most definitely have never said that you should believe ME because I am this or that. I have said that virtually EVERYBODY with a lot of experience in the poker world says that the odds are against making it as a full time pro.

I don't think there is anything wrong with you except that you're young and think you know everything, and older people have been saying that about young ones for millenia.

One purpose of education is to develop the ability to learn from other people's experience. Hopefully, you will develop that ability someday. I very strongly suspect that your parents and teachers have made similar comments.

Perhaps you will succeed as a full time pro. I hope you do. But I will not waste any more time trying to educate you.

Regards,

Al
