Not to be a downer, but $8k is significantly underrolled for 1/2 live for full time play, even if it is "expense free". What if the relationship goes south? Then you are stuck with monthly expenses that your roll cannot support. What if you get into a barfight one night and have to go to the hospital? Rollsmasher. RoR is way too high. I have had one of my best friends, who plays professionally, go from 100k to busto in a week and needing to borrow money from me. Granted he plays at the 10/20 and 25/50 level, but either way, 8k is far too little.
 
I know I just repeated what previous posts have stated but there are soooo many important factors that you need to be content with before living on poker. Im just going to rapid fire them off here. A reply post would be appreciated.
 
What is your winrate? For how long? Is there a game available every day? Is it a beatable game? Are you able to stay focused 8 hours a day 6 days a week? Are you motivated to play daily? Do you tilt? Do you handle stress well? Do you manage large sums of cash well? Do you accurately track/document your play? Are you honest with yourself? Are you REALLY honest with yourself?
 
Answer these questions plz. Be very honest. First to yourself, then as a post in this thread.
 
If you decide to jump in head first, then I wish you only the best.
 
Edit: Im really good at forgetting to include things... Tell us your business plan! What are your goals in terms of monthly/quarterly/yearly. How much will you play a week? How much do you need/want to make?
