It is possible to make a living from online poker. It's very difficult to do on smaller sites, you need sites with bigger traffic, so you can put in the volume to grind more often, win bigger money. You shouldn't quit your day job to play online poker, if you're asking this question.

It would be great to make a living playing online poker do you need to hand strategy like what's a bit on different hands that you have since you can't actually see the person that you're playing and get any kind of hint on what they have I'm just putting that question out there what do you really think you need to know to really be good at playing poker online besides a bankroll

what do you really think you need to know to really be good at playing poker online besides a bankroll

Trust the process, no matter how good you're at playing poker, you can't win them all. Never give up, and grind it out. If you still got chips, you're still in the game. It's also important to always be open to improving, and never get over confident. Stay humble.

Sometimes I get mad at myself when I misplay a hand. If you notice leaks in your game, revaluate and fix them.

Some people are able to make a living by playing online poker, particularly those with extensive skills and experience who know how to strategize effectively. However, this may not be a sustainable career in the long term. It’s vital to use your poker earnings to invest in more stable sources of income.

I agree the bankroll is very important. However, it can't be all that is needed or, otherwise, the gambling businesses would get trashed by all the pro-players. Do you all agree? Why do you feel that is the case or not?

Plans B are quite necessary for Poker Professionals. Gambling can be dangerous at times. Wise players would also engage in real estate, stocks or businesses to secure their future to become free financially.

I think is possible but it seems to me as a suicide mission. I will advise a prospective player to have other source of income before taking such steps. First, if you depend on poker game for your next meal, you will definitely play with frustration and deep sitted anxiety. That anxiety will definitely make you unfit to play.

To add to this, making sure to only play with money you can kick around, don't use the mortgage money.
