Good Luck Barron.

I was curious, did you have a difficult time staying in the top of your class (assuming you did well to be getting off-the-cuff job offers like this) during your MBA program while playing poker professionally (or semi-professionally as the case may be)?

I'm a law student and I just finished the first year of law school in the top 1% of my class and am started interviews at all the big firms in my area. I've been supporting myself and my family w/ poker for a while now and I've found that I hit a wall at a certain point in my poker development and can go no further (in terms of stakes) due to my divided focus. Did you struggle with this at all? I'm still making my nut but I'd like to do better over the next year and I'm curious how you balanced it out.

eventually integrating back into the real work world is the best path.

I know I am already on my way too.

I guess that would depend at how good you are at poker. Seems to me the better transition would be poker>>>retirement.

and how much you enjoy the game and, more importantly, the lifestyle.
