"Why don't you copy this post and change the word poker to job? "

Heh I just watched con-air where steve buscemi lays it out perfectly. Can't remem exact words but basically says insane is working the 9-5 for 40-50 years of your life and at the end of it you don't really have anything. I only play 20hrs of poker a week, and am only doing this until I get enough capital to live (very comfortably) off my investments. They'll take up 2-10 hrs a week.

Excellent analogy, especially considering he plays craps after escaping at the end of the movie, he is basically saying youd be crazy NOT to be a pro gambler [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

This reminds me of Doyle in that "Behind the Glory, Poker superstars" I saw the other day on Fox Sports Net. Doyle was talking about when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer and giver 3 months to live. Somehow there was a spontaneous remission and the cancer was gone. He said life's too short to not do what he wanted. "And what I wanted was to play high stakes poker".

I'm with him [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
