Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 6672896, member: 33113"] first off, it is MUCH more difficult today than it was 10years ago. There's a player I see often on the tables I play on (micro/low stakes) and I have notes on him from playing in tournaments from 10+ years ago. Back then this player had $700k in profits (not total cashes.. 'profits') and along with MTT's he was a $60 sng 18man reg. Today he plays $7 avg. buyin MTT's. Is profitable but not making a killing at it obviously :( I think keys are: live in a region where the cost of living is CHEAP (Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam... ??) Have a decent internet connection. Study like your food & rent depends upon it (oh... it does) Have the ability to play many tables for long hours. Hang with a group of like-minded individuals (& hopefully some who are better at the game than you are) Have a decent-sized bankroll to cover living expenses for 6mos. to 1yr. along with whatever is needed to play the game(s) you are playing in.
