Default Re: As a broke \"pro\" which game would you play...? (some stats)

2800's barely enough to play 3/6 with a 'professional' roll imo.

Grind 3/6, maybe getting a job so your living doesn't suck your roll? (this is assuming you're independant and have to pay for insurance, food, shelter etc)

People who question this haven't actually tried to play long hours. It's much much more difficult than it seems when you are putting in part time hours. That said, 15 is still pretty low end.

Really? I am strongly considering going pro pretty soon, but right now I still put in 30hrs/wk while working 50hrs/wk regular job.

Of course I have no friends, no life, and practically no interests outside of poker, so maybe I'm just special. In an OCD-type sense, that is.

6 table 3/6. I would encourage you to 8 table. I've been 10 tabling 5/10 (6) and it's really doable. Play like 21/15 instead of 25/18 or whatever. Play for the RB. If you have only 15 hours a week, really concentrate on playing more tables. 3/6 sucks so it's perfect--you can do many tables and win well.
