Default Becoming a Pilot

I'm halfway done college and nothing I've studied has blown me away yet, and I have no idea for a carreer. I've always loved flying so the idea of becoming a pilot seems pretty cool. Any pilots out there know the process toward becoming say a pilot or copilot for a sizable airline? I play poker for a living so I figured if anything I won't need to worry about a job while I'm training and could probably afford flight school (I think) once I'm done with college. Would it be feasible? Also, I have terrible vision and wear glasses, but once I turn 25 I'll definitely be getting LASIC - will this hold me back?
For qualifications sake I'll be graduating (hopefully) from a fairly prestigous american liberal arts college with a physics degree. Thanks,
