The State of Poker

Interesting chat on what we were discussing here a while back, that Poker is not as profitable as it used to be and it is harder to make a living off of it.

I used to have plans to play Poker professionally in a few years, but not anymore.  Finding out more and more that it's not the glamorous life it used to be.  With all these players going broke and the fact that the competition is tougher due to Poker losing some of its popularity, you are better off having a real job.

School of Poker:  We never gamble.  

Id rather go broke, work to build another BR instead of resigning myself  to the realization that I will work for the rest of my life.

sitting in a poker room or a sportsbook every day could become equally mundane.

Poker is a great second source of income/hobby. U must have a primary source of income. I play poker around half a dozen times per year at a casino. I generally win more than I lose but it not imagine earning a living off of it. Too many ups and downs. Ans competition is alot better with the amount of resources at peoples disposal. There are very few horrible players. Everyone knows the basics and in todays game people just push all in much more frequently with quality hands.
