Predictable Paycheck?
Predictable Paycheck? One of the big differences between a professional poker player and a professional in any other job field is that a professional poker player does not have a predictable paycheck. A poker player can hope, the can plan, they can think that they know how much they will win. But a poker player can never really be sure how much they will win at the tables in a month, so they can never really make a real budget. I think the fact that professional players do not have a set paycheck is the main factor that can drive people away from the professional poker life. Some people like predictable paycheck. I, for one, like to know exactly how much I will be earning each month in order so that I can make a detailed budget. This perpetual reliance on reliability is what makes me a terrible candidate to be a professional online poker player. The ones who do the best in this unpredictable profession are the ones who are exactly unlike me. If you thrive on the thrill of never knowing how much you will bring home, then professional poker playing could be for you. If you like a predictable paycheck, it may be time to start looking for a new job.
