Hello, please wish me luck poker community. I will start being a full time professional live cash grinder in December playing 1/2 1/3 nl. im starting off in the small limits to really get a feel for the full time grind and how to handle myself. my main game is actually 5/5 PLO but i hope to jump into that action later.
i will be running social media and websites at the same time to document and promote the poker and travel lifestyle.
Any advice from other full time grinders is welcome.

not a full time grinder, but I do wish you the best of luck! Please post your channels so people can follow. I think there will be so many interested to see a live traveler and player assuming you do document your stuff a lot.... I think it will really click!

exactly. just to give some juicy details. my starting bankroll will be 20k, and i have lots of the blogging equipment lined up.
ive learned from playing for years that a stop loss is absolutely critical, at least for me. in fact i would say well executed stop losses is what separates winning players from losing players.

Are you talking about making a pass on time?

I'm not sure what your question is. But the point is people have a hard time leaving from a tough table.

honestly, like 11 years. not 11 years of straight grinding more like going thru phases where i played a lot (lost a lot) but learned all kinds of angles to poker. i learned PLO which brought me to the next level, and i trained myself to not get stressed over losing money.

You aren't worried that rake will kill your profit playing under 2/5 ?

Ya, trying not to worry about that on a psychology level, that's why I got the website side hustle going and most importantly the networking! Looking for tips from other pros about where the best games are.

I am wondering if you have selected what sites to us and why. Rake? Also are you going to multi table when grinding and if so how tables (same sites?).
I think the number of tables is key to making a living
Plus your required income level based on where you live.
