Default Move out or continue to live with parents?

I'm 31yrs old. I have been living with my parents for 2 yrs (post divorce)
I've been playing poker part time for 6 yrs.
It has been my sole source of income for the last 2 yrs.
This year I have averaged $25/hr (I suck)
However I am only averaging 20hrs a week (I suck)
I have about a $15K BR. I am currently playing 5/10full.
My parents can NOT get hi-speed. (actually they get 28K max, and I lose conn at least 2x a day) I think if I had Hi speed I would play more because I could surf/post on 2+2 while playing.

Living on my own would cost:
$400/rent (this is splitting a place with a pool,gym,hispeed)
$100/utilities
$600/food/gas (car is paid for)

and whatever else I am forgetting per month.

Should I move out and force myself to work the extra 10hrs/wk it would cost to live away from home? Or should I stay at home and force myself to work the extra 10 hrs on dial-up and pocket the cash?

Thanks
