i think it is great that you're learning more than one game... but a word of caution. i did as you are doing when i first discovered poker. learning how to play many variants of the game is good but it might slow your growth. it took me a long time to realize you are much better off to be a master in one field than a jack of all trades.

i'd focus on one game and one structure until you crush the game then move onto learning other games. i would pick NLHE cash games to learn how to crush first since they are spread everywhere.

games are definitely harder now than they were a decade ago but that is to be expected. the games will always get a little tougher over time but they are still easily beaten if you put forth the effort.

going pro takes much more than just knowledge of the game and money. sure you can make some money playing this game with a bankroll and a solid game but you're not going to last long without self control and balance in your life.

i've attempted to make a living off this games more times than i care to recall. i lack balance and occasionally struggle with tilt which can ruin any great card player.

good luck, study the game, avoid -EV plays on and off the table, and hang out with your family and friends to keep balance in your life... you do all that and it's very possible to make it.
