Message: [QUOTE="kraemer, post: 4403211, member: 20033"] I would say that most of the frustration in poker is caused by overestimating how profitable poker really is... When You take a closer look at how much great players actually expect to earn ( about 4 - 6 BB in cash games per 100 hands... ) then it gets pretty obvious that 99% of the people can not make a living from poker because to make that happen You need to play the high limits and almost noone has a bankroll that would enable him to play these levels... ( If You have enough money to play NL400 then You do not need to make a living playing poker... You already made a living then... ) You have to love the game... If You are in it for the money it is probably gonna be frustrating experience. Even if You could afford to play NL200 ( You should have at least a $4000 bankroll to do so ) You would end up grinding all day long because You only earn around $10 per hour... that's less than You would make flipping burgers...
