I know the basics about poker - hands, betting etc. I don’t really get when it’s said someone is getting 2 to 1 on his money to call. I also don’t get when they talk about implied odds. Can anyone explain this so it’s easy to understand and I can start to apply it?

I watch texas hold em all the time and the pros are always playing for big money, and I wonder. What do you have to do to become a pro. Also, do you have to pay to get in tournaments. I like poker a lot and I was wondering what the chances of me are of becoming a pro. I am 16 by the way. I don’t have a gambling problem and I usually play online and sometimes with friends.

I’ve made quite a bit of money last year playing cash game poker on the side and I’m thinking of quitting my day job and going full time. How does a professional poker player file taxes and their annual salary? How does the IRS verify the income reported is true? Must you report every cent of your winnings minus the losses?

Black_19 asked:


If I wanted to become a ‘professional’ poker player, how would I start? Online tournaments? Local tournaments? Is there a place I can go to find more information? Or should I just take my 10k buy in to the main event and hope to make the final table (or at the very least, in the money). I guess I’m just trying to figure out if there is a place where I can gain more information about wanting to take poker seriously rather than just watching it on tv.
