An Airstream and a Dream! Making a living at live $1/$2?
Basic rules of grinding for a living .... 1. low over head ... 2. Low over head 3. 50 to 75 buy ins 4. separate from BR 1 year of bills $ in savings - i know it sounds like a lot but you can run bad for a long time and knowing that your covered really will take the stress off and prevent you from playing under stress - this may take you a year longer to get to but gives you a real chance at being a poker grinder. Also if its live vs online you need to be able to scout games so tip the pit bosses well get there cells make friends ect - be willing for a night to drop to a smaller or step up a ...

Doyles Room didnt pay my rake back
Thanks Adam for the update - but i think it might be time to focus on the big sites till one of the lil guys really shows up and does it the right way.... we are the customer and we get treated like they dont need us when in fact its the opposite, we should use forums such as P5s to unite us players like a union if we boycotted even for 1 day they would feel it and get the message. a few things that are also bugging me about doyles or other skins of cake ... whats with the worst deposit and withdraw methods ever is it really that hard to get echecks like ub stars and tilt ' and if it is why ...

Sick Life Decision...WWYD?
keep the job - once you have 3 years of bills in savings then you can debate it .... oh and having a low over head helps as well anything to cut down on the stress - i say having a goal to go pro is cool but find out what the 3 year number is and win your way there GL

Re:Live NL hold em questions
my hourly in a local 2-5 game is currently 78.00 thats over 3000 hours ive had runs of 130s and lows of 20s - but i think it really matters on what nights u play if its a weekend game you will have alot more action and here in CA our games can be pretty fast most of my crazy big win nights or bad nights have come from HG if your in local CA u know that is how it goes there and at the bike it tends to be 60-80 i say drive rake is huge and its always good to have a big stack at the table Weapon X
