"Money won, is twice as sweet as money earned." (Paul Newman in The Color of Money)
If that's true, then I "earned" $1300 playing cards yesterday. :bounce:

1. Holy crap, dude.
Do you do that full-time, as your job? I had a friend who did it playing online poker for a year or so.... he said it was easy, but it ate 12 hours of his day to do it.

2. Just for fun
I consider it a hobby. I would hate to turn something I love into a job. Yesterday (the regular monthly tourney at the local card room) was nice but a bit out of the ordinary. But I do consistently earn a little over 2:1 on my money playing at the levels I play at.

3. That's cool :)
I can absolutely understand why you wouldn't do that!
