Re: Is pro poker right for me? [LONG]

The sheer # of hands that you will play in a month along with rakeback deals that any pro should have will make a loosing month almost impossible.

I agree that it should be unlikely, but nothing is out of the question entirely. As such, I would obviously need to be financially and emotionally prepared for that possibility. BTW, I have seen graphs posted here from some well known posters that contain hundreds of thousands of hands of data, but have break-even stretches of 50k+ hands. Of course, break-even is still profitable with rakeback, but putting in a ton of hands doesn't necessarily guarantee profit for the month even for a winning player. Obviously you know that, but I'm just saying that I appreciate his pointing out some things to be prepared for. Rare events still happen if you play long enough, and sometimes if you don't play too long at all.
