Poker tips to become a professional

[Rattle Snake]

I've been playing on and off for a year but the last month I played so much (almost the same hours as my full time job!) that I started thinking to go professional one day. I know it's way too early but I read nearly all the books and I think I got what it takes to be a profesional internet pokerplayer.
Are there any tips you guys can give me?
And how do I know when I can take the plunge?

I would say you would need to have lots of patience. Aim for a bank roll of about €10,000 + and then start to play in tournaments. The problem is that you need have money , a bank roll, in order to make money. Start small, and see how you can make a living out of it.

Remember that for big every winner there are many small/big losers.

ITS ALWAYS BEST TO HAVE INVISIBLE INCOME, I.E. HAVE MONEY COMING IN FROM SOMEWHERE THAT DOESNT INVOLVE POKER 1ST, HAVE A DECENT BANK ROLL 1ST

a well know poker pro told me something that i didnt get at the time but i get it now

the 2 cards in your hand only represents approx 10% of the game
if you get this and can completely understand how to play by only looking at your cards approx 10-20% of the time and still win, then and only then should you turn pro,

make sure you are serious, be honest about it, ask yourself, have i studied enough for this job, and being a pro is a job

have you read more or less everything there is to read on poker
how good do you really believe you are
