    Not sure if this has been posted, it's a short documentary on a small time poker pro, I saw the link at 2+2.

    Is there a reason why people who play live, and seemingly have no family/friend life while living in hotel rooms for weeks at a time, don't play online? I mean, I'm sure this kid has some obvious skill, because he's beating live games consistantly, but dont you think he could use that skill, learn to play online, see more hands in less time, and have a life?

    In the end he says he enjoys the lifestyle he is living, and thats great because I think everyone should do what they love to do. But I can't help but think he would enjoy it even more if he spent less time to make the same amount of money (assuming he learned to play online games just as well... it's a bit of a change) and then had some sort of a non-poker life.

    On Line players are dedicated, some tilt, some play poorly, but they're all trying to play better and better, in Casinos, you'll often play against folks out for a fun evening, you'll hear people packing for vacation trips to Vegas say things like "I expect to lose money" you won't hear that from an on line player.
