Hello fellow 2+2 members!!

Many people are concerned about BR, mental game but I'd be interested to know for instance how to position myself/my career as to attract sponsors and generate other sources of income with poker.

How about you? What's your #1 question about how to achieve a successful career playing poker?

it can be anything, even if you think it's silly. Would be interesting to have some discussion going. Cheers!

How does someone who crushes all cash games live and online like Phil Helmuth do it? How can we pick up on tells like him? Does he do bodylanguage courses or is it just a natural talent that someone needs to have or else they have no hope?

This applies to all life interests ...

1) Be nice and respect those around you
2) Listen to .. not talk at .. people around you
3) Be humble when winning
3A) Be humble when losing

4) Show consistent results
5) Get lucky with a few introductions
6) Get lucky and catch someone's eye

7) Ask questions and digest the answers before giving your 'expert' opinion
8) Understand the pecking order .. you may feel left out at times
9) Understand that this is work ... and then work at it even when no one is watching

Good point ballabott, also with which bankroll should you consider starting playing so that's it's worth time? or which limits could be another question?
