Making a living at 1/2 NL?
I'm mostly an online player but occassionally venture to a local casino which unfortunately isn't very local. Anyway, I always play the 1/2 NL game there and almost invariably at least triple my buy in (I'd say 2/3 times I come home ahead and its usually 300-400 ahead).
However, I've only been maybe 12 times so perhaps I've had a tremendously lucky streak.
Try not to laugh, but I currently play .25/.50 NL online four tables for a living, so any cautions about how bad of a lifestyle playing poker is for a living is not really relevant to me. However, I'm not making the kind of money at it as I used to as tables have tightened up considerably over the past year, and my bankroll has been pretty much treading water since then. (I was making 700-1k a week, now its down to 400-500).
Live games are just so much looser than online games its rediculous. Based on my limited experiences at the casino, I could easily see making 1-2k a week....am I having pipe dream thoughts or what?
