Have you ever fantasized about playing poker for a living? If so, Professional Poker is your indispensable guide. You will learn poker odds and expert-level playing skills that form the foundation of a pro's playing abilities, along with career issues such as managing bankrolls, work hours, tournaments vs. cash games, travel, emotional control, paying taxes, getting staked, and online play.

It also addresses in detail many important questions that very few other poker books ever answer, such as:

* Do You Have What It Takes To Play For A Living?

* Should You Quit Your Day Job? * Should You Just Play Part Time Instead?

* How Much Money Can You Really Make?

* How Much Do You Need To Get Started? * What Do The Pros On TV Know That You Don't?

Professional Poker outlines each step you will take in your transition to the professional level, and, if you're already there, introduces skills and valuable advice that will empower you to always play your 'A" game.
