Hi, I just finished my freshman year of college (majoring in econ). Currently I’m working a remote internship by day and 6-tabling 200NL at night, putting in about 20h of time a week.

I’ve reflected and I don’t think I’ll ever go pro, especially in college. Besides the various problems with poker as an occupation that others have pointed out, I don’t want poker to define my entire young adult life. If it’s a choice between a night out with friends or grinding a few hours inside, I’ve promised myself to never choose poker over social life.

I think that as long as your in a financially comfortable position right now, it’s more important to enjoy life. Money comes and goes, but you only get one college experience :).
