I'm pretty happy fwiw, as long as you find proper balance, don't think someone playing 14 hours a day of starcraft is any happier how many games do you have to grind to make a reasonable living? usually in poker we talk in terms of hands, not games, unless you play sit n goes I guess
and yeah the question is very vague since you can play from 0.01/0.02 ($2 buy in) to 500/1000($100 000 buy in)

yeah time to finish childs games GL in the real adult game

I hope he'll have the same level at the poker :D

I saw Elky playing broodwar two days ago, and now Boxer goes to poker.
|
I kinda like this. Former Starcraft players still have a really good decision making so I think he'll do pretty well.

Sweet, another way to watch Boxer compete
|

I was really hoping he would be more active in the SC scene again at some point. But I guess it's probably not going to happen. Good luck Boxer!
|
As a curiosity I decided to watch a poker player as he streamed his games. Dude had like 20 windows open! I was in awe at how he was able to keep track of everything.
With Boxer's micro ability he should have no problem with 20 windows :D

Gl Slayers_Boxer hope your happy! ^_^

So when is the BoxeR v Jinro heads up game going to happen? haha

I haven't really heard about poker in years, thought the boom was long dead.
I like playing it for 5$ with a group of friends winner takes all, but I would never attempt to make a career out of it. I can't imagine how many people destroy themselves financially each year thinking they will hit it big.
*EDIT :
And let's be honest, the reason so many SC players go to poker isn't because somehow their skills are transferable. It's because a lot of those people can't handle or don't want regular jobs, 9-5 shifts or anything else. Poker is just another way for them to have a "job" without real responsibilities. In Boxer's case, he gets sponsors because of his popularity so it's a decent idea for him. For most people, it's just laziness and wanting to make money without "working".

Bleh, seriously underwhelming. I wish he played a real computer game ^_^
