Making it as a pro - follow my dream

I am a pro poker player but I did not graduate from a school for poker players with a piece of paper that said “Congratulations You Are a Poker Pro” it is something that evolved through playing at online poker rooms where I learned my trade and decided that I could make more money by playing at various online casinos than I could at my previous occupation. I have played hundreds of hours at my favourite online poker casinos and after I totted up my hourly return, it was far greater than I could earn from any other job that I was qualified for.

You can follow my dream and become a poker pro and enjoy my lifestyle which when I started I considered to be secondary to my main occupation, but I found that online poker gave me so much pleasure that my income from online poker, though less to begin with than my regular occupation, allowed me to follow my dream and become a full time poker pro. I had to firstly decide that being a poker pro was a business and I would have to apply common sense business fundamentals to this new occupation. I had to decide how many hours I was prepared to play and to look at the various forms of online poker and pick the one that for me gave the highest hourly rate.

I am a Limit Hold’em player and this means that I can play two or three hands at once on the internet poker rooms I favour, which means I can play many more hands per hour than I could if I was at a City Casino. This increases my winnings by five or six times more than if I had to concentrate as a single hand at a City Casino, in the Limit Hold’em games of poker number of hands is the important secret to winning.

Although I am a pro, the internet sites allow many to play poker as a side income and not to rely on it as a stable income and semi pros as they are known, can make a significant income from playing cards at the online poker rooms, also play when it suits them or fit in with their social activities. You may not want to follow my dream by making it as a pro full time, but you can still play at your online casino and make money.
