Have to agree with most of the threads here, perhaps 5-10 years ago the gamewas beatable to the extent of making reasonable sums of money from it, with 80%of the money going to 20% of the players.

However i think today the 'secret' is out so to speak. So many players now,even at the lowest stakes, are taking the time to study the game. Afterwatching various televised events and hearing stories about the guy who made amillion from nothing, everyone has the same dream. Everyone is reading the sameinformation, watching the same videos and essentially playing very similargames.

The general standard of poker is much higher. Of course there are still fishout there, but firstly it is finding them, then finding the right spot to playagainst them, and finally avoiding the painful bad beats and suckouts. So thequestion is, is it really worth it? Is it worth spending hours upon hours at acomputer, or at a casino during anti social hours to then only give yourself asmall chance to make moderate amounts of money. I think the majority of peoplejust love the idea and the status of being a professional poker player, ignoringthe reality and the true extent of what is possible.

I think it’s just important to keep enjoying poker rather than chase a dreamof becoming rich, but hey just my opinion and sorry for the negative approachhaha.
