Yes — it is possible to make a living playing poker.
But it’s a lot harder than most people think.

I think so, but for a select number of people

Many players dream of playing poker professionally, but variance and mindset are big factors. Do you think it’s sustainable in the long run?
Yes, you can make a living playing poker, but just like in business, only about 10–15% of people survive after ten years. Or take sports betting, for example — statistics show that 90% of people lose their bankroll. It’s the same in poker — only a small percentage of players really make it.

When asked if you can make a living playing poker, the best answer is NO. Let me explain why...
For any novice player, it seems that knowing all the card combinations, you are already a poker professor and will beat everyone and only withdraw money step by step 💰...
But in 99% of cases, they are disappointed, and for those who do not know how to stop in time, life really breaks down.
To make money playing poker, you need to have a rare, and not at all for everyone, this symbiosis of character, knowledge, perseverance, attention, ability to analyze, and a dozen other qualities that will make it possible to really make money on the player in the long run. Just my opinion 🤔
