I have played poker as a fun and side hustle. Am average player who have a lot of things to learn. Though, I have achieve some level of success in poker. Recently, am thinking if it is possible to play poker as source of income. I believe with dedication and commitment, i can scale through!
Do you think is possible to make a living playing poker?
 
I'm a profitable player. Poker is not my main source of income, but I do win more than I lose. You need good bankroll management, discipline, and consistency to succeed/make a income from poker.

It is possible to make a living playing poker, but it's hard to get to that level, and maintain it.
 
It's really tough, but ever since COVID, poker has been my only source of income.

Wow! This is great! It definitely takes you a lot of discipline and consistency to reach such level. That's what am planning to do!
 
You'd have to be very good at it, and you'd have to be low-key, because the house always wins.

And I could imagine a situation where a good player wins a little here and there, but controls stuff to give the illusion of normalcy, lol.
 
One can earn money by playing poker, but it must be done at an advanced level because it require discipline and control especially over bankrolls.
 
You can make a living playing poker bymut we need to point out that achieving this goal requires exceptional skills and you also need to be disciplined with your finances.
 
I know people in real life that play poker as a main profession. These people have given all their lives to studying and understanding poker. And can be said to be masters. I know people that sustain a whole family with Poker earnings. There are levels to poker and professional poker players are the highest level.

There are quite a lot of people that are making a living in poker but it requires a top level skill, mental toughness and you must be able to adapt to the table dynamics too. If you have what it takes, then you can make a living out of Poker.
