Vegas tho

Also most cash game players just simply dont care about MTTs. I'd suggest less than 5% of full time cash players played any part of ispt.

I am sure the number of people who play MTTs for a living must be well over 100.  I am ranked just inside the 100 on pocket , I'd say at least 90% of those above me must be full time, quite a few below me and several who aren't ranked.  So I'd go for something like 250 for online MTTs alone.  I guess there must be more than that play cash for a living and a few less play STTs these days + a smattering of live only players who make a living.  So all in all about 1k.

Out of interest Doobs, what does your typical schedule look like?

I can't start until around 8, but weekday:
Stars
8.30 50 rebuy
8.35 25 hyper turbo plo8, 100 plo8
9 big 150
10.15 100 turbo
+ more occasionally the hotter 50 and 75 and if I start early enough the 7.30 50 plo8
I will sometimes play others if in the mood and sometimes throw away 500 in the weekly plo8 on a Wednesday.

Stars.fr
100 at 8pm
100 turbo, 50 turbo and 30 turbo.
Sometimes the 8.30 200 6 max

Ongame
50 rebuy at 8
Sometimes 50 turbo at 9.30 and 100 turbo at 10.15

Sky
Whatever the 8pm game is and sometimes the mini and sometimes the 9 pm.

Winamax
8 pm 100 euro game
8.30 high roller and most days the 50
9.30 100 Payback turbo
10 50 turbo
11 Le Go Fast 50 Turbo
Sometimes the 20 Euro crapshoot.

I poker
Sometimes play the 50r and the deep stack turbo.  I am not a fan, the structures are just a little too good for the prize money.   I don't want to be still up at 4am for a few hundred dollars.

I try and keep below 12 tables nowadays, so only open more than that by accident.
Some days I may just play a few turbos and the ante only on stars which is about 10.  It usually happens if I am knocked or the kids are playing up or if I am playing on a non core day.
Sundays things get binned for the more special Sunday biggies.

I drop the bigger ones on bad downswings.  When I am working I lose everything that finishes after 2, though I think even that is too late, so may get stricter next time.

I only really play proper schedules on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays.  Kids get me up at 7.

Loads grinding the circuit, then a bunch making a living and a relatively small number making loads.

Seems to be some confusion between "Profession" and "trade".

They are very different things. Don't ask me the difference though, I don't know.

Think one is posh, like Tal, the other is more sort of common, like Vinni, or Jeeves.
