I started playing poker full time for a living in 2004, and quit my part time job and stopped my MSc studies 2/3 of the way. The decision was not easy, but I am happy I made it.
Flexibility in working hours cannot be beat, but stress levels can be high from time to time.
Currently I work here at
rakeback Ltd office every day, and only play poker in evenings and weekends. But poker is still my main source of income, so I consider myself a professional player. I mainly play the 25/50 and 50/100 fixed limit games at Ongame network, with username maollila.
