Message: [QUOTE="Matt Vaughan, post: 2306235, member: 34747"] The fact that you speak about poker concepts in this way "I know these things," as well as your poker experiences, tells me you're probably not ready to go pro. I see nothing in your post about practicality: cost of living, quality of life you want, what you've actually done to start moving toward your goals, or any kind of game plan. And that's all ignoring the fact that I see no proof in this post that you're even a winning player. I don't mean to be harsh, but saying "I know I'm a winner, and not on a heater," is meaningless. Post some numbers, how much volume have you played in your life, and how much money have you made? I know you're not planning on leaving for Vegas at this moment, but if you're planning to try to do so in 2-5 years, do you have any idea how much money you'll need before you do? What stakes you'll have to play, and what win-rate you'll need? You say you haven't played much live, and yet you make it seem like you can just hop in and be a winner there. This may or may not be true. Also, I skimmed through some of the answers and your replies to them, and the fact that you seem to think you'll always be profitable is concerning to me. The games are constantly changing, and right now they are only getting tougher. Live is still pretty soft, but that can fluctuate as well. It just seems like you're not really thinking about this in a realistic way. Edit: Oh and one last thing. If you think of watching the EPT and reading Poker News articles as "study," then I have to assume you've never made a true effort to systematically improve your game. [/QUOTE]
