I find it very difficult to make a living just playing poker, because you have to have a good sponsor and play very well and with a lot of skill.

I agree with you, it's hard. But if you are patient and disciplined, you have every chance to succeed. In addition, you can always combine your main work with a game of poker.

It's so hard to achieve that goal, you need to study and practice a lot of hands and lose money at first, and then maybe if you haven't given up, you can manage to make a decent profit on this game.

It's difficult, but I'm sure it's possible. You just need to work hard every day, step by step to the goal. If you work hard and ignore temporary difficulties, I am sure you will be able to achieve your goal.

Yes, it is difficult, but everything is possible, there are masters in any business. In poker, of course, it is more difficult to become a professional, because along with skills, you also need luck.

I think if you have a sponsor or even without it if you play a lot then you can earn a lot of money worth a try

Its very hard if it's your only source of income but if you have other sources to complement it and fall back on as safety nets then its very possible to accomplish because it takes the pressure off.

As already written, it is difficult but possible, it all depends on your desire and desire to do it.

You need to have opponents who don't win by pure luck.

It's my dream to earn only poker for a good life. And apparently it will remain a dream.

Hello
Of course, although it is difficult, if you work hard, if you have good money, I think you can achieve good success.

The "average person" can make a living with poker. Nothing overnight, but over time it is possible to achieve an enviable poker playing skill. With discipline and good bankroll management, it is possible to make a profit.
But with average playing skills, logic says that you will not be able to make a living by playing poker. Simple because the majority of players must lose money in order for the minority, who usually make a profit, to profit.

It is possible for an average person to make a living playing poker if you know your limits and know when to stop and get up from the table. Example you set a minimal limit to win everyday and by the end of the week, you'll probably have a good payday.

I think it's very difficult, because it's not easy to have a steady income from poker. Of course it also depends of where you live and what type of life do you want for yourself. Here where I live (Brazil), $1 is equal to 5x the local currency, so, if you win $500 monthly you already win the average salary of my country. For me it's not enough to have a good life, but for others this can be enough money.

It would be strange if everyone who plays poker could easily earn a living))) Only a small number of players and only those who constantly learn and improve their game can ultimately count on stable winnings !!!

If would have been easy everyone would do it. But with patience and a lot of practice it's possible

Dear jfofla, if it were possible, an ordinary person would sit at home and not go to work, to his factory, working for a capitalist and earning a penny, this is an obvious thing, a simple average person in online poker is needed for one thing, it's to feed the regulars, the selected caste on poker sites, making deposits, well and occasionally they will throw him baits in the form of "winning" some sums, anyway, then he will lose 10 times more at a distance, it's better not to get carried away with it (playing poker) seriously, and play a little in freerolls or in inexpensive tournaments for a couple of dollars, thereby quenching your craving for the game

It doesn't work this way, but the advice of playing small stakes is sound.
