I play poker for fun, but my intention is to make a little money off of it. I don't care how much I make, but I don't want it to be a hobby that costs me money.

I enjoy MTTs, and that's what I want my focus to be. However, most of the places in my area are about an hour away, so I will also play live because I want to play for 6-8 hours when I go.

I've gone few times to play in the last year, but have either broken even or lost money. It was mostly just the variance of MTTs and a bad of cards, but I do need to work on my game. That comes with more practice/play and that takes money.

My concern isn't about finding the money to play with, but keeping my poker money separate from my life roll. Sure, I may have a couple hundred to sit down and play poker with, but that's 2 days of work I'm risking.

I have most of this week off before I will have life stuff that will keep me from playing for well over a month. I'll go ahead and keep playing for fun this week and hope to get lucky. After that, I'll just focus on my online game and start putting my online cashouts aside to build a live roll. No more using my own money for poker starting in 2 weeks. There are quite a few cheap MTTs around here  <50 so I will only need to save roughly 1k before I play live again.
