The guy who owns 24hpoker (the software that I was trying to have a tourney under) made it big doing that.

Yeah, I actually win enough even on small tables to live decently. Just don't have time to play them like I want.Originally posted by CyberTraffic

Oh, the big tables are a goal of course. I'm working on cleaning up my n/l game (pretty decent as is), I was playing mainly limit and I'm not scared of anyone on that game. Played n/l with a couple of guys that buy in to the WSOP events and pretty much ran them all over the table.Originally posted by gornyhuy
You thinking about doing the real big tournies like you see on ESPN, or just raking it in daily online?
But speaking of online, party poker has a tourney every week now and first place runs around $70,000. One of those from time to time would pad the income pretty good by itself.

Go for it man. I was going to claim my occupation as a professional gambler a couple years ago (I am 22 now), just to see if the government would contact me to see what the fuck was up. Never happened though.Originally posted by stocktrader23

At the Webmaster Poker Tourney at Internext, the dealer at my first table was a professional poker player (he was doing the organizer a favor dealing that night). He says he makes tens of millions most years just by playing at the Bellagio at nights (besides the big tourneys he enters). There is a huge amount of "whales" that fly to Vegas and don't mind losing a few hundred grand or more at a sitting just so they can say they tested their mettle against the pros and so they have a good time and a great story to take back to their friends how they played against those guys on TV at the WOrld Series of Poker... Its a big business apparently getting in games at Bellagio with big bankroll suckers.Comment

Bankroll isn't a problem. They don't have huge games locally and I can play whatever online. I pulled out $10,000 on my first $100 deposit last year in a few months playing while I was learning the game. This kind of stuff is a blast, and I love outplaying people as well. Money is just a fantastic benefit of being good.Originally posted by Ian

Don't have a solid month of play to use as an example. On limit when I play usually end up $500 to $1500 ahead in a 1 to 10 hour session. That's on a 5/10 table. No limit been averaging around $250 an hour on the small buy in table.Originally posted by SomeCreep

Limit is definately different in terms of strategy. Pot odds are a huge factor but if you're already assesing risk you should be golden.Originally posted by Phoenix
