Hey guys,

 

I'm not entirely sure this is the correct topic since its a challange in the making as in not yet fully in motion. More of should i do it?. So here's my situation, i'm 27 years old, soon to be 28, i live with my girlfriend, my mom died almost 4 years ago due to cancer, father left me when i was a boy, have a house to my name (luckily) and getting a job here is next to impossible due to recession/lack of employment (our country had only 8.000 fulltime employments past year + the salary is big enough to barely sustain your life expenses if so, many peoples are struggling). I've played quite alot of poker, tho never had really big scores, only recently i've started playing mtts (like 2 years ago), had much more success than in cash games, figured out that i like mtts much more, the way you play etc + cash game experiences do make a difference postflop, tho i'm far from being good at cash.

 

You can look me up (PS: lukzi, fulltilt: newjackk ongame: itzrigged) – this is important for the following text.

 

I have about 13k€ to my name, thats somewhat a large chunk of money for most people (not poker pros) specially here. I have to pay monthly bills of about 550€, i currently have students sallary of 300-350€ so u can see my dilema. What i'm thinking is placing 13k on poker sites and make monthly cashouts + of course keep working for free 300€ since its a nobrainer job, i dont have to do anything, i can basicly play poker at work all the time. I guess the big question here is should i do it?should i play with smaller amounts first (in this case i dont have that much time since i'm basicly losing money every month) am i a winner longterm? i know the samples are not too big and thats what worries me. I am aware of the pressure i'll have everymonth esp on the downswing and varience is big in mtts, thats why id be a real big bankroll nit. SO i'm asking for your opinions/suggestions/help etc, should i do it? etc. Thanks for reading my rumbling cool hopefully i'll recieve some feeedback
