Poker buddy....poker.

I guess you could have titled your post Poker to Monopoly!

Anybody up for playing poker with property deeds?

Like I just told them I want to be a professional poker player.

I am a "retired" professional poker player, I have been fortunate to do fairly well over the years in poker, but I have become disillusioned with playing the game for a living, and feel like it is time for a change. 

I actually played poker for a living for years after I graduated, really moved from analyzing numbers in one fashion to another.

This is known as “speculating,” and it isn’t much better than getting in your car, driving to Vegas, and betting all your money at the poker table.

I’ve been grinding the poker scene for a long time and looking to change how I make a living.

Well Greg, if this were a game of poker that we sat down at the table of some months ago, you'd be sitting there twirling your 1 last remaining chip and I'd be sitting here barely visible behind my towering mass of them, so I'd have to say you missed a lot, a whole heck of a lot. 

Most people look like the dealer on a poker table after they got their paycheck: just handing it out to everyone in front of them, every single round.Once you really and intuitlvley understand compounding effects you see how silly most people behave.
