    As far as online though, Bodog poker is still accepting U.S. players for real money. The feds didnt seize them *shrugs* Bodog poker is an extension of Bodog.com, which is an all around sports gambling site :tu

    thats cool, im not trying to lose real money just yet

    You should at least learn the game though.

    I watch a lot of dudes go broke just cuz they let their egos get involved whenever they play with a woman at the table.

    A woman with even fairly decent skills can come up in poker.

    Maybe make it Official Poker/Gambling thread? Since it's probably a lot more people who gamble on other things rather than poker. Nah mean?

    Americans don't make any real money playing online poker anyone. Obama needs all those stragglers playing internet poker for pennies to join the MILITARY.

    The average manager at a fast food joint in the northwest makes more a year than the average "poker pro".

    The real money in poker is selling books, software, training, etc. to those dreamers who think their going to get rich playing a game that everyone figured out back in '08.

    It is tough to live off of it, that's for sure. You make some good points.
    I know that in order to me to make a serious living off it I'd have to win a really big tournament or satellite and place fairly well in a good tournament.
    I'm obviously planning to go back to school and work DUH, but it's working for me right now so I won't fix something that's not broken. I don't risk much.
