I play Poker for a living - primarily online, sometimes in casinos and poker rooms. This post is a breakdown of what it means to play poker as a profession. There are stories, my poker results, discussions on how much money can be made, and a lot more. Available to answer questions.

A Complete Breakdown — Mayank Jain


  • So if you choose to be a live player, the regular travel to tournaments or casinos and meeting new people could be really satisfying.

  • It is challenging - A simple fact of the game of poker is that you make money by playing against players who are worse than you.

  • The sheer number of resources - both free and paid makes it dead simple to learn the game quickly and in a better way.

  • I have punched walls and screamed in frustration after getting unlucky a few times in a row even after making the correct play.

  • So, if you are thinking of getting into poker professionally, having something to balance it off would be a good idea to counter fatigue especially if you look at it as a 10-15 year career.
