Playing online poker for a living
is absolutely doable, but it takes a combination of talent, dedication,
patience, discipline and disposition to succeed.
You must study and constantly work
on the weak parts of your game. Reading a book like "Hold'em for Advanced
Players" once, will not be good enough. You will have to read it over and
over, and you must truly consume, study and learn it. You must take the
game seriously at all times, maintaining your focus and always continue
to learn, even when you are away from the table.
Knowing where and at what times the
the loosest middle and upper limit poker games are played are the number
one secret for those that play professional poker online. Online poker
professionals win most of their money from the weak players(fishes-suckers),
so finding a table with two or three fishes on it, is extremely important
if you want to succeed at this game. Tight and conservative poker tables
are not profitable to play on, even for the professionals.
Finding the right table to play on
will take some time and effort from your side, but will definately be worth
it if you are serious of making a living playing this great and complex
game.
