Default I made $40 today, should I go pro?

I played $5/$10 6 max for a half hour. I won $40. If I did this for 8 hours a day, that would be $640 a day, or $233,600 a year, which is just a little more than I currently make dealing. Should I take the plunge?

Take a look at my blog if you want an idea how drastic the swings can be when starting out, scroll down to the posts I made in June.

I made 40 dollars last MONTH, I went pro.

Making a living at 3/6 is easy. SSH says so. Just depends what your idea of "living" is.

I'd rather have a broken sarcasm detector than be another mediocre 2+2 knockoff.

Is it a joke? Firstly 5/10 is to low limit to "go pro" and if you don't understand flunctuations better your off to a bad start. I would never consider myself a pro even if I play up 15/30 with consistent winnings. Pro's dont play for pennies since you will have both loosing and winning days. However if you were living on the Philipines and the alternative pay would just give you food on the table then thats another story...

1. the OP is clearly not serious.

2. you have no concept of what limits allow a person to be a "pro." A single person can easily live off of multitabling 2/4. And obv any higher limit
