My last post?

I am taking the plunge. Inspired by the recent posts of Poker Grump and my good friend Styna I have finally decided to give it a shot. I've been playing poker "seriously," for the last 5 years. Seriously means I was trying to make money and eventually, a pseudo-career out of it. It sounds crazy, I know. I want to quit my job, not try to get another one, to go and play a game. Yes, a game you can make a lot of money in, but a gambling game. My family is obviously completely against this. My soon to be ex wife, well, she's being nicer than she was about it when we were together. Maybe because briefly, she saw it for herself too. That it was actually possible to do. I finally believe in myself again. And if I fail... well, then fuck it. I tried. Balls deep. "It's the easiest thing in the world, to become a professional poker player. All you have to do is quit your job." -Tommy Angelo I would love to continue this blog as a full time player reflecting on my everyday trials and observations. I would love to hopefully, one day, provide some inspiration or guidance for future aspiring players or anyone in general. I believe the struggle is timeless and universal. And no matter what you want to do, as long as you know it's what you want to do. Fucking do it! It's worth trying for. This is what I have been waiting and wanting to do. Time to nut up or shut up.
