I hear it can be done at 4/8 and even at 3/6 when multi-tabling. What you mean there are people who play poker with other people in a physical room at this thing they call a table, not just their computer screens??? |

Re: Becoming a professional player
Yeah but I hear thier Random Number Generators are kinda bad. Plus you don't have the option of a 4 color deck or muting the stupid people.

[/ QUOTE ] I know several people who make about $1000/week over a good number of months (a year or more) playing $3/6 multitable (not saying if I'm one of them or not...) That is $50,000 a year, not enough for that Bugatti Sexarosa, but certainly enough for a single guy or a family on a budget. |

Huh? All the ones I know had jobs, have degrees and were often successful at what they did. How you came up with this one, I have no idea, it's one of the stupidest things I've read in a while. name one [/ QUOTE ] Ken Uston comes to mind. I could probably name more professional blackjack players than poker players, though. To answer the original post, most guys probably don't buy things unless it's with cash, if possible, and to go with that is the downside of trying to get loans and credit if you haven't already established enough otherwise. Cash on hand usually isn't the problem, but having your net worth fluctuate so much is. |

Re: Becoming a professional player
Online is really new to me, so I DO forget that you can be playing 4 tables at once. It seems manic to me--flipping from screen to screen, hopping from one table to another, with scant seconds spent considering what's going on anywhere. The whole approach must end up being completely statistical. Why not just program your pc to do all that and stay in bed--it'll come to that, surely. What a dismal way to make a living.
But you guys crack me up with your remarks about how weak our random number generators are (yeah, and you're forgetting completely that we have to TIP them. Imagine!) and our color scheme limitations. I have trouble wrapping my head around what most of you are really up to. It's so utterly foreign to my experience of poker. Guys, it's people--that's the good part. Otherwise, just go daytrade. |
