Turn Pro ?

[gavham]

Does anyone have any ideas about going pro with the poker? how would you know if it was time? On a personal note i win a staggering amount of cash in the time i am able to play but would be very wary of giving up my day job. i suppose it would all come down to building up a serious stack ie safety net - at the moment i withdraw £300 a week and the stack is still increasing. In April alone i won over £4000. i have decide to keep a diary and monitor my progress. i play mostly 5 handed games and the odd tourny (should really improve my tourny play although i have had some success in the short time i've been playing these). My current plan is to build a $100,000 stack whilst still withdrawing £300 per week. I would be keen to hear some expieriences of other players who have given this some thought and anything else that i have probably not taken in to account? No play for me this week as i am down in the lake district with the local school kids ( very public spirited of me ) still managing to access the lounge with the small amounts of time i get too my self. 35- 11 year olds NIGHTMARE

Re: Turn Pro ? Moley, I have been on a bit of a tear on the cash tables myself recently and have also pondered what you have been pondering but I've come to the conclusion that I'd HATE to have to sit down at the PC and think "Shit...I have to win $***.** today to pay the bills" It would just knock all of the enjoyment it. Congrats on your April winnings Moley - thats fantastic. On a personal note - grinding out the bucks on the cash tables is getting a bit boring at the moment - looking forward to the MTT tonight
