Being famous by doing what you love for a living is what most people aspire to. Often, people think that famous professional gamblers have it easy and that money just falls in their laps. Well, this isn’t always the case. Firstly, professional gamblers spend the best part of their youth learning the tricks of the trade and understanding the mathematical strategies behind the various moves. Theses mathematical strategies are the key to beating the casino. They then practice day in and day out until they’re ready to compete at major events. Once noticed, they get sponsors and are under the constant pressure to perform so that they can keep their sponsorships. The plus side is that they obviously make a ton of cash, live in fancy homes and drive top of the range cars. But being famous can be hard and lonely. They constantly travel to compete in tournaments and having a family is virtually impossible. So, it’s a great profession if you’re young, but once you’ve made your millions a time will come when you need to say enough and start settling down. It’s one hell -of-a-ride though and can be a lot of fun if gambling is your passion.
