Grandgnu, what makes you think your a semi-pro. You turned 75$ into $1000, I mean thats nice and all but big f-ing deal. Too many people on this site think they are semi-pros because they made a few thousand dollars. Once you start making over $20,000 a year then you can lable yourself a semi-pro. Multi tabling 1/2 does not make you anything.

It's "your" as in "you are" not "your". The Internet is really killing grammar.

I'm not saying it was a big deal, didn't mean for it to come across that way at all. If it was a big deal, I'd be full-on pro, not semi-pro.

The definition of semi-pro according to www.dictionary.com

semipro n : an athlete who plays for pay on a part-time basis

I consider poker a skilled "sport", and I play for pay on a part-time basis. I do not depend solely on poker to support me financially, nor do I play it full-time, therefore, I am semi-pro.

And I started out at the $0.50/$1 and then moved to $1/$2 and $2/$4 and $3/$6. Eventually I plan to move up, when my bankroll is sufficient.

p.s. Please, you and the others, take your attitudes and shove them, thank you for your attention to this matter, elitist scum! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
