The rake/tipping at this level is brutal. Lets at least acknowledge that.
Game selection is key. Can you get in 40 quality hours a week?
In Vegas, maybe but other areas not so much.
What do you think the win rate is in these games?
IMHO the problem is that 10-15 years ago when min wage was $7 an hour playing 1-2 looked a decent option for some.
Now that min wages are often $15+ most areas, most people would be better off at a job with vacation and health benefits.
Also if you are good enough to crush 1-2, you almost certainly should be playing higher or doing something else with your skill set.
