I know most poker players dream of playing poker for a living. We tend to view the regular working stiff as a hamster running on a wheel and getting nowhere. For most of us, the 9-5 M-F life is just too boring and predictible. After struggling through several months of making a living only through poker, I finally took a part time consulting job. I now have a supplemental income that pretty much covers all my bills. I have discovered that poker is a lot more fun when it is supplemental. The bad beats hurt less and seem to happen much less often. It is amazing how much better you can play when you are not in a must win situation. So my advise for all of you thinking about "going pro", is to make sure you either have plenty in the bank and a huge bankroll to start with, or have something part time or on the side to help with the bills. You will be much more successful and have a much better time.
Good luck!
