Im gonna take a wild stab in the dark and say.......POKER

Nice! I was thinking more along the lines of $2/5 nl or $4/8 limit... or if he played the bigger games.

[chillin@thebellag]

So what's your primary game? HE? Did you play any of the other events, like O/8, Razz or HORSE? Did you play only in the NLHE events, or did you get some limit HE, too?

nlhe and plo cash games, i played 4 nlhe events, 2 plo events and 1 nlhe/plo mix event
not a fan of lhe, pretty sure i'd rather watch paint dry than play that game. I play O8 from time to time and bunch of stuff like stud, 2-7 single/double/triple draw, badugi, etc. at home games for fun.

"Army of Drinkers" it's Coltons AA group.

ah I see, very nice

Also Congrats on finally joining the site! Pro poker player, that's awesome! One of these days I'll hopefully be able to do the same! What do you usually play?

mainly 5/10 online, live anything from 5/10-25/50

you can make a living off of 4/8 limit? talk about grinding it out. considering max hourly pot rake, minus tips and expenses (flight, food, ect.) I would think you would need to play at least 25/50 nl, to make a living at it. Im kind of curious now too.

edit: never mind. you posted the answer

no clue what's possible as far as playing live exclusively, as i've said me and all my friends who do this for a living mainly play online. as far as online goes, depending on how good you are, how many tables you play and how sick of a grinder you are people make a living playing as low as 0.5/1

I've made between $300 and $700 a night playing $4/8 before, did it pretty consecutively for about 2 months playing about 2 times a week then going out drinking/partying the other 5 times. My hot 2 months rush ended and there was nothing I could do to win so I haven't really played since. Just bs around here and there but not like I used to.

A buddy of mine was killing it on $3/6 for about 2 years. He was making a few hundred a night almost every night but then he hit a few cold months and he ended up having to get a job recently. But he's starting to do pretty good again.

As far as live goes those are some pretty big games. Crazy action!!!

You'd be surprised. With rakes from affiliates and all, and a win rate of 2bb/hr or so, you could probably make out. Win an MTT here or there and you're golden.

So, did you cash in any of the events?

[dogeaters]

Make the Final table in any event... Sport the AOD shirt... and the full tilt hat if they are paying well... and Throw an AOD party... Nassau threw a good size one for for 6k ... we will expect yours to be twice as big... at the least... welcome to the board woot ONE TIME

[rock28]

pretty sure I wouldn't be caught dead wearing any "poker attire" in my regular life

and you do realize that when you see people wearing those fulltilt hats or logos or whatever it's because they're being paid to do so right? it's not exactly about being fashion forward.

What do they get paid? Full Tilt must throw out some serious cash, just about every person on tv has one of those hats on.

[nyc2vegas]

yes they do get paid....probabaly well too, especially if youre well known and the advertisement is working perfectly because it is being discussed right here

I got a couple friends that qualified for the WSOP through online sites - they've said that you're basically given swag to wear as a result of winning seats into the main event.

yea, cashed 3 times, I guess luck was on my side

will do...

there are a bunch of different offers and deals made, on the bottom level you can get $500-$1000 to wear a patch as a one time thing when getting deep in a tournament that will get some tv time. On the stratosphere level are people like Chris Ferguson and Howard Lederer who own Fulltilt and thus wear the hats and logos to advertise their own company. In between there are a bunch of different deal possibilities and cash amounts

yea, past two years I got my seat on stars and opted to wear their gear in exchange for $1k.

Solid, man. I've been meaning to check out Vegas during WSOP time.

I love badugi, just takes some time playing to get a strategy. Ideas of the best casino in LV for badugi? I do pretty well online, but I'm a bit hesitant to do badugi live, but I'd like to view it.
