Just Curious, what limits do you play and what is your average yearly salary? I wish I was a Pro Poker Player.
Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

Poker is my only income. Does that make me pro? 8)

while the term "Pro" is subjective I think you would need to at least play 200NL to grind out a 30-40K per year living.
If i get to that point I may just move to some place like Thailand where 30k a year is like having 70k

Don't spend that all in one place.

Try writing down what you think is "a living" from a poker stand point. How much do you want to make, playing which games for how long? Then ask if anyone is currently living up to your expectation of a poker living.
And for the record, 30k in Thailand is waaaayyy more than 70k........you guys don't even know

Food, clothing, and accomodation is dirt cheap yes, but Cars and electronics are the same if not more expensive.
My goal is to live there if I'm making at least 30k /year from poker.
