Re: Back to work? Opinions needed!
I do play online for a living for the past 8 months after leaving a much better job than you're talking about here. There is one statement you make that jumps out at me that makes it clear that you need to take the job.
[ QUOTE ] The one setback to my play has been inconsistency, I'm only averaging about 23 hours per week. I think part of this has to do with the fact that when you combine unemployement checks with part-time poker income, I'm making comfortably more than I was at the old job. [/ QUOTE ] You clearly do not have what it takes to be a grinder. Losing streaks will come and you have to be willing to put in 50+ hr weeks to be successful playing for a living. You also need the health benefits as you're being very irresponsible letting those slide. I assume you're young and think you won't need them anytime soon, but that is a disaster waiting to happen. Good luck with the job!
