Can you become a rich person with poker?

The percentage of winning is better in actual poker room than in on line poker.

Very true, I have actually been playing against the algos instead of the players just to see how they work in terms of strat lol. And yup. I am done

I think so, when I won my first cent, I went nuts. Hopefully soon I will win more than one cent.

May be in next life.

I do not know if it is possible to become rich, but you can earn money for living!!

I think getting rich playing poker is a dream ...

Getting rich from poker is a dream life but some people made it:smile:

Let's try

I am trying to get rich playing poker : )
You never know, lighting might strike

I would like it very much, I hope it happens! May the end of the rainbow have a pot of gold for us all.

Yes you can

Sure, if you win more than you lose ^^.

Haha... I'm actually in the process doing those steps, but I'll need way more than $10k before going to Vegas. Recently came back to poker, was really young when the boom happened and stopped around 2010-11, and got 1st in an ACR tri-hour freeroll, but blew that $9 after getting it to about $25($14 and a $11 sat ticket). Then got 2nd iirc in a c****o.o*g (tehe still new not sure about posting site names) freeroll and from the about $4 or 5 I got to $15, in same hour to $52, next day to $80 and by the end of that day I managed to cash another and make it $120.

On day 3 I got to $160 in the final game of the day, it was a TKO micro MTT, got 2nd(so same prize as first but way less bounty). Which was good, coz I was around $100 after all the buy ins for the day so managed to turn a profit. Now day 4 I started late (I'm EU time) and decided to just play 1 table only and since I started later I could use the cash I would've already entered in to 1 and really focus on it.

So play $16.50 Buy in wed HS on ACR and got to almost 80K (just over x3 starting stack) then lost in 2 really sad hands and tried to come back from 5k chips but busted about 3 hours in lol. first hand set, he shoved on flop i had set 6 he had JJ and turned a J... other I called min raise from late with A7 on button or sb forgot and flop top 2 pair iirc, he had AJ, riverd paired Q on boards and I was too invested to fold his river bet ...

recovering from tilt atm. But still on +$140 which is good from 0 and only back playing poker for 2 weeks after 10 years, things changed! . Ill maybe make a thread soon if it goes well though. :joyman:

I think that a very small fraction of a percentage of all players succeed. But everyone dreams about it.

I think so.
if I am on the right day and in the right place, with 72 off I will win any AA.
when my big hit day arrives, on this occasion I will be unbeatable.
i'm sure this day will come.

It takes a lot of time and effort but I think that yes you can.

I am mostly playing for fun knowing that winning a big tournement will probably never happen. If you really want to make money if have to spent your whole day studying and playing, I only play in my spare time.

If I learn to win, then maybe yes. At least it will be a source of income.

Very few people have become rich through poker. We see this in the media, the glamor. What they hide are ruined lives, discarded lives because of gambling addiction.

Sure you can, and some lucky ones do, But I wouldn't hold my breath, there are plenty of stories of successful Poker players (professional) who make a decent living from the game, but for each and every one of them that does, there are thousands of others that don't.
People have become rich over night by playing the Lottery or Football pools or even gambling on the stock market, but again there are thousands that don't.
The one thing you can be sure of is that for every winner, there are thousands of losers and you do not need to look far to see this, just open any Lobby of any MTT game and see how many people enter the tournament and how many finish in the money, It is as simple as that!

When the fun Stops, STOP!

Good day!
I think that very few people become very rich people thanks to poker - this is an innate talent, and luck, and incredible work.
But enough people can make good money with poker.
The main thing is discipline and work on the game. Even if you are completely unlucky

Sure thats why so much peoples love that game becuase one day all wants to be rich

Can you become rich from poker?

Yes you can if you follow good brm and grind up-up-up... but that sounds easier than it looks,

Or you need to win a big tournament to become instantly rich... also easier said then done..

So yes you can become rich but its really hard the become rich from poker alone,

I would just keep poker as a extra thing to win money or as a hobby

BRM is not difficult to conduct, but I believe that it is necessary if you vlazhivayut at least $ 200. Lead BRM if you have made a smaller amount it is a torment for you and this game will not be a joy.

I agree with you that for a person to get rich with Poker is a dream, But for the majority of the population become rich one day was always a dream.

So If You believe in It go for It until you get there.

getting rich in poker is like getting rich in wrestling. Yes, you can have a certain edge over your opponents, but you just encause to the winning side of poker bt you are not in total control of what will happend next.
Yes, i hate variance
