Question: How do i become semi-professional at 'texas hold 'em' poker?

(Posted by: Wertherzzz on 2008-12-21 17:14:05)

I am 18 years old and have been playing poker for fun for many years now. Since i turned 18 I've been playing in cash tournaments online and also in local pubs. I have had quite a lot of comments saying i am a very good player and i win 90 % of the time. So my question is, how do i become Semi Pro?

You are a pro when you make your living playing cards, not at a day job. I guess a semi pro would make money but still have a day job. At 18 you can play in casinos in some states, but in other states you must be 21. You should keep a book recording all of your playing, where, when, how long, blinds, type of game, and most important exactly how much you won or lost. Looking at the book you will know how you are doing.
