Playing online for a 'living'

[tazmision89]

I have been playing full time for about 3 years now (I owned a business and sold it). Here is a breakdown of where I play:

25% online (PartyPoker)
25% Live N/L Tournments (Tues & Thurs at a social club)
25% Foxwoods (10/20, 20/40 or 30/60 limit)
25% Taj or Borgata (10/20, 20/40 or 30/60 limit)

I play on average 7 hours a day. Some days I make out great and other days I suffer.

If I feel like I am having a bad outing, I cash out immediately. I do not even think about it twice. I have lost big by thinking I can break a funk.

Last year I made 75K playing and that was the best I have done so far. It takes a strong mind to be in to this day in and day out. Also, I am married, so it takes a understanding and supportive spouse.
