WEll i have to say yes because i have been making thousands playing poker in the casinos in atlantic city new jersey ! However this is only part time not full time !
to do it full time you would need a massive bankroll to survive the losing streaks which can go on for weeks at a time !
I think playing at the levels of $1 - $5 to start at you can do very well with $25,000 bankroll to start ! SET your goal to play each day to win $100 or lose $100 and go home ! Never spending any part of your bankroll to buy any thing YOU need a seperate source of money apart from that playing bankroll !
just figure in your living expenses for the year and have enough funds to get through that 1st year !
YOUR winnings from poker will be used to kepp that account full for next year so deduct 30% from your winnings each week and put it in your expense account !
Then after you can up your limits playing poker to the $5 - $10 level and up to highest limits in that casino ! So maybe then you only need to play once or twice a week !

I am training to definitely be able to play poker maybe not for a living but for a decent income. So far, its been working out fine, but I haven't been playing amazing players yet so we'll see how it works out. Also, I play on Fulltilt.com so that online play is good for me. You all should try it out and use the referral code: IMMORTALSHINE to get a 100% deposit bonus!! Pretty amazing if you ask me.

I wish that I could play poker to get an income! I love playing card games. I am just not very good at poker!
That is awesome that you have been making so much money. Atlantic City is definitely a good place to do that! My husband and I head down there sometimes. He usually does pretty well at the tables. I am just happy if we leave with money! We expect to lose it all everytime, so that we are never disappointed.
Good luck with your poker! I hope it continues to pay out for you!

WEll derila theres always a way to learn ! If you really want to know how to play Poker and be tops heck i can teach you !
But not holdem i mean 7 card stud ! My experience over 45 years playing with pros in local house games i learned the hard way ! Then in Casino play i started to learn how to read others actions. Thats all i needed to do plus some atctics when playing aginst the cowboy and cowgirl chasers that call with any thing in 1st 3 cards ! Actually most women have asexist attitude when playing against Men even in the pro's on TV i notice it they refuse to fold to the males but when a woman raises them they feel like equals and fold thier hands ! This i have seen every year when playing they just refuse to fold thier cards and call even tho they are beaten ! SO i guess you need to send me a private message if you want to learn ! Also there are many great books about playing poker FREE in your local library !
BUT then again if everyone played by those books POKER would be BORING !
