Congratulations on how you’ve done so var, and I hope it continues for you. I will be the first to tell you that gambling CAN be a valid form of income, and not just at the poker tables. I am very cautious to tell people to go pro or continue on as you are going without asking them first how they’re doing it. Not because I want to steal their strategy or anything, but because there are right and wrong ways to do it, and sometimes a good luck streak can disguise itself as skill.

The most effective but most difficult way to go pro as a blackjack player is counting cards. It’s not difficult because it’s hard to learn, it’s difficult because it’s hard to not get caught. The next most successful way to win is with a solid strategy and strong money management skills. The least effective way to win, which is the style most gambling addicts fall into is playing by ‘feel’ and thinking they can intuitively ‘read’ the table and end up randomly increasing and decreasing their bets. If that is your strategy, I’d suggest you limit your bankroll to the money you’ve already won and look for a day job.

I specialize in craps, but am as knowledgeable (and often much more) on gambling strategies than any gambling ‘expert’ who has written books on it. If you’d like to discuss anything about strategy or playing for a living, feel free to email me through my profile (just click on my username and find the ‘email Vegas_Matt’ link).

Good luck and have fun.

HOWEVER!!! If you start losing money consistently, then please stop and hav a break, make some money from a job maybe… I know that you will lose money here and there, i’m talking about big losses in a few weeks.

So my answer is sure, make some cash, enter the big comps and you’ll be rich. But, if you start losing out, stop until you think you got it right.

Good luck, hope i helped
