Poker And Your Part Time Job.


Recommended Posts

So for those of you who play poker part time, how much time do you put intoyour daily sessions to reach your daily goals? You probably have a system that you follow everyday when you sign on to your designated poker site. For example, if your goal is to win $140 in 4hrs. thats equivalent to a $17hr. job.(full time). Without getting greedy and trying to win more, you should be ableto succeed 75% of the time. Of course your going to have bad runs hereand there, but that's where I think a big enough BR would give you some cushion in losses. So if your reading this and this thread fits you, please share your thoughts on this topic.The reason why I bring this up is because a friend and I are moving to the mainland to launch a small run at this NL Texas Holdem game, but of coursewe'll both have part time jobs to have some kind of income coming in! :)thanks again guys, jcashx36x

Poker is my part time job, but my only goal is to make the right decisions.

What I'm doing is going to school and playing small poker on the side to pick up some cash. When I'm done with school and working as a Xray Tech, I can play higher stake games... Just what I'm going to do. :club:

making $140 in 4 hrs is a terrible goal. Greatwhite said it well... your only goal should be to play well and make right decisions. Goals like that get in the way of playing well

Your only goals should be regarding the number of hands/hours you want to play in a given day/week/month. Then you should try to make the right decisions every time and let the cards fall where they may.
