$0.00824/ table hour.Is this sustainable or should I expect some negative variance?l

Here's my analysis:-Sixty hours a week (sustainable if you are really dedicated to the notion of being a Professional poker player)- 50 weeks a year (As a hard-working self-employed poker player, you allow yourself only two weeks of vacation a year)- two tables per session (you know you're good enough to handle the added pressure of playing multiple tables)- $0.00824 / table hour=======================EQUALS: Annual income of $49.44- you can go buy yourself a nice coffee grinder (http://www.celebrityappliance.com/defogr.html)or a chevy suburban tail light ($49.44 before shipping and taxes)(http://www.chevypartspro.com/Chevy_Taillights.html)...BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!Once your focus and concentration allow you to handle EVEN MORE tables (and as a WINNING player, this is only a matter of time and dedication to your carreer choice). You will be able to play 5 tables at once and enter into the elite (top 99.99% est.) of the workforce which earns an annual THREE-FIGURE salary.No seriously.... any time you can be assured of positive ROI at th poker table, it isn't all bad. (There are worse things than being a break-even player).Cheers,Merby

Thanks! That means a lot - especially since Crosby is getting a lot more ice time than me. Then again, that could just be because he is a Penguin player whereas I am only a Canucks fan. (Although, I personally think Crawford is just giving me the "shift shaft"). :wink:
