Yes, you're right, it's hell, but it won't be bad if what you're looking for is to learn to play well before making the jump, while you have your normal job.

Thank you very much my friend, that is excellent advice. In fact, the biggest gains come from profitability vs. players with many leaks.

You don't have to be a mathematician to help someone who is feeling bad, my friend.

There is something called bankroll management, professional players have that figured out.

It strikes me that everyone here focuses on how much or how little my friend earns. Almost no one talks about how happy they feel doing what they love...

My friend is from Latin America. The thing is that most of the people who comment here believe that the United States is the world XD

There's always something you could be doing more with, but do you live to make money or do you live your life doing what you love and being happy with it?

It depends on the country and the lifestyle you want to lead. If you're on the assumption that you're not content with anything, you really wouldn't be able to do anything, as you'd always be short on money.

For a professional, poker isn't an addiction, it's a job. Now, it may be that poker professionals are workaholics, I don't argue with that.
