The golden years of poker, when the money flowed like rivers, are behind us. A profitable game requires more and more effort and work on skill. However, it is still possible to win good money.Making a consistent profit playing online poker is not easy. Many players struggle to make even a few dollars a day, let alone $100.

Yes! We missed out.

I don't mean to offend the man, but I see someone like Blackrain79and wish I even did a little bit of study back when he was playing lots of hands and winning at a good rate. We all could have made a fair bit of money by playing a lot at that time, applying a somewhat basic strategy. Just needed to stay disciplined but he was ahead of the curve. He still has the knock-on effect from that, being able to get many views from social media and selling his books/courses.

Things are much more difficult now.

I don't think he even plays much now because even microstakes became too tough for him.

I think this is possible because I know a few little-known players who make a living without working at all. I can say that in order to start providing yourself with poker, you need to spend a lot of resources and time, but still the result will not be 100 percent.

I’m curious, is it really possible for ordinary people to organize life in a way, that you can play poker and make good living without having full-time job? As for me, it’s more likely just a beautiful way to romanticize poker, to make us believe, that we can be high on life and spent all the time on your own precious self: getting up whenever we want, going to gym and shopping, meeting friends, taking a journey etc...and that’s all just thanks to poker😊

In reality you come back home at 9 pm, gloomy and exhausted, and start playing poker to try to win 25c in MTT😂

Am I wrong?

I don't know for sure if you are wrong in thinking that way, but I think it would be wonderful to be like that, to make a living from the money you win at poker, but we have to know that as long as someone wins, someone else loses to be a balance?

I think in the near future I will be able to make a living from poker

Very possible. You just have to forget of having a life. Easy.

If you do everything you described every day, then there will simply be no room left for poker in your life). There are two options here: combine poker with everyday life, or first spend many years playing and earn money capital, and then live the life you described). It won’t work to devote 1 hour a day to the game and live happily). In order to earn a lot of money, you need to spend a lot of time and effort - this is the law of life). Making money by playing poker and forgetting about your main job is real), but first you need to believe in it.
