Whether you can "go pro" or not depends on a whole more things that just how much you make per hour. Like do you have dependents? Savings? Elderly parents who might need caring for? Will it be impossible to reenter your field if you leave for a year or two? What does the market look like for online poker in the coming year? Five years? 10 years? And foremost, what does going pro mean to you? 10 hour weeks and luxury cruises to the bahamas? Or does it mean 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year?
The answers to all of these questions and a whole lot more questions I can't even think of right now are way important than some dollar amount, line in the sand, that says you are pro when you cross it.
I'm 22, no dependents, cheap rent, no bills. "Going pro" for me means something entirely different to someone with a wife and kid and a mortgage payment.
ok euph enough of ur bullshit. u dont understand a lot about poker
1. variance
2. fatigue
about 1% of pro poker players have the stamina to put in 40 hrs/week multitabling and i can tell u that if u did, ur brain would be so tired that having fun would be impossible.
