@4soulNot an expert when it comes to moving into another country and leaving everything solid behind, but the expectations are never what you think them to be. You got a job that pays sht? Good. That's still something and doesn't push you back where you came from, if the overall benefit for you is on a positive side. What comes to future plans, grab em', grab em' all, cos you can play pretty much everywhere on the planet. And you can already do it. The hard question is, how much you want to play? Or how much it takes time away from the more important things in life. If you have a choice, go for it. A whole lot better reason to fight for than some stupid game of cards.
Don't give up now, man. You're no quitter, dckhead :laugh:🆒 Keeping thumbs up for ya however it goes 👍👍

7. I'm not sad that i leaved my country, but i am not totally happy with all new rools from here.....Anyway, is much better! As a minijob (40hours per week) without any qualifications i won more than i used to win as a vet in my poor country!

 


I  know what are you talking about @4soul - I'm from your even poorest neighbour country . So many friends left for the capital or abroad...:sad:

As for the choice of professional starvation - no thanks. I graduated - Applied Linguistics (English and Russian) back in 2008 and we were the first 6 persons with such diplomas in the whole country, but I have 0 days as a worker (technically). 

Also before the finals I realised that the poker will give me the freedom to live like I want and not to be a servant to some bosses or institutions - Nonserviam 🆒

I know that kind of life is not for everyone, but if the 12-14h working days have drained you after you earned enough, you might consider changing the country again.

This time look for a really low-standard one - like SouthWest Bulgaria :laugh: (too bad I'm near the capital) or even better Azerbeijan or Kazakhstan.

Thus with few hours of poker daily you'll live a very decent life, not to mention if you climb the stakes and begin to earn €1000-2000...

@SCOBYYes it's possible, but you need to put more effort then in a normal job. Example: In a normal job you learn what you have to do and that's it, maybe you take 1-2 more courses a year but the change isn't that significant. In poker you need to evolve on a monthly basis or dare i my say weekly/daily if you play on a high level. Pretty much if you aren't willing to put the time and effort i'd say keep it as a hobby/small side income, it will be better to your sanity.

:laugh: at you for enjoying the privilege of coming here without a visa, being allowed to work here, to live in a 1st world country, yet you complain about our rules and regulations after a few weeks?

Also bro, a "Minijob" (tax-free entry level job) is limited to 450 Euro a month. The minimum wage is 8,84 Euro, meaning you're only allowed to work 50 hours and 54 minutes per month in this type of job, that's why it's called "mini"-job. 40 hours per week is as full time as it gets. :laugh: Having said that, if what you say is true, either your boss is cheating you on your hourly wage or you're cheating social security and the tax-man.

Either way if you see these guys show up at your storage facility----->zoll.PNG.f5a84e6549b0cecc1e533620ac32c8eb.PNG

 

 RUN!

We're gonna win on so many levels! We're gonna win, win, win. You're gonna get so tired of winning, you're gonna say: "Mr. President please, we don't wanna win anymore, it's too much!" And I'm gonna say: "I'm sorry, we're gonna keep winning because we're gonna make America great again!"

@SCOBY enough is very broad definition, sometimes it's "too much, but never enough" :laugh:

But talking about poker and cost of living - Here In Bulgaria most people work 8hrs for €300-400. In Sofia for ~€800- €1000, in smaller towns and villages even for below min. wage €250. 

And this is if you are lucky, very good at your profession or have connections at the right places, otherwise - unemployment!

The minimum pension is lower than the buy-in of the new daily Comet tourney €50. And this is usually given to disabled and old people that haven't worked enough (40-50)years...

So if you manage to make more profit than the given wage figures which is definitely possible even in the "tough poker enviorment" nowadays, so the money should be enough. I'm not saying it's easier than working at office or factory, but I can't really compare :laugh:

Of course it depends where you live, do you pay rent or own or share a house with a relative(s).

After all there are many great diasporas of poker pros at places where the cost of living is substantially lower and provide good recreation too : Thailand, Cambodia, Costa Rica to name a few. 

However I think that the Balkan countries to the west of BG:Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro are even better places. The post-soviet countries are great choices too.

@pinki, thanks a lot! It helped me and it appear cool, i cannot edit some things like on the phone, but it's good for a while till i will buy another phone, i destroyed it! 👼:teardrop:😞🤫

@Rushbie, from next week i am 90% shure that i will gain a full-time job in my domain (which is better paid!). I hope that will not move me away from poker....but i'm shure i will play not so much like in past! 

@anxietyyy5 , GG! You're doing well! I'm happy that you won it! You played the best from FT! 😉

@GothMoth, where you live now? In how many countries you lived in the past? You have such good experience i see....

Thank-you @SCOBY, it the third or fourth time when i REstart this challenge! Hope this will be the last 🤣. Yeah, for shure, i will go further with this try, because 15-30e are enought for me to grow deeply, but this means time (and i am thinking on @Rushbie words....😏).

Anyway, we are not pressed by time, SO let's do it!

@FreedoM is the best romanian player who knows how the things works into a challenge! But , when you live in Germany (where the rent apartment is ~1000€, food ~400€, health insurance ~200€, drive for work ~150€ etc), poker is not a solution!!! You die quick, because are upswings and downswings.... I read few forums from german's community poker and the main ideea i've understand that, uf you're a good cash player, you must have 10.000€ to invest monthly for a win like 2-3k€, which is not most of our level :happyshy: . Mtts are like gunshoot, it comes when you don't know...

@WuDu, you know preety well the system. For me was a good start, because i met a nice Manager and....i'm used to work like in my old country ( whoutout breaks and these stuffs) :laugh: , the income was slight down with 5-8% that i was thinking. But it's good! Perhaps, you cannot work in this way for a long term!

@4soul agree. Poker as the main source of earnings  it is hard work. in some countries you can do it on 1-5euro stakes ... in others your should be: 10-25e. but in any case it requires hard work, often stressful. I also think if someone has knowledge, skills in sports betting can these two things mix   ... In both cases, In both cases it is up to the right bankroll and management. if you are going to start  streaming it is also a way...  maybe buddy will be a Unibet ambassador in a very short time:rockon: :)  

you can also play in the casino (slots) - but here the bankroll management and self-control is at a higher level, I'm talking about it only because streams from slots have many followers / subscribers ... but here you have to play on many sites :)  If your channel is interesting, you can probably count on many promotions from the casinos ...

Haha, 10x @psrquack , i knew u were there, i bet on you that you win that mtt, that chipleader isn't so experienced for doing big things :D! GL BRO! Perhaps, i didn had the necesarry stack for gamble with him. 

So, i used today ( like @psrquack already know ) , the 10E Ticket MTT into Omaha KO , and registered from the beginnning. I used it here because i guess i can beat minimum 1 player for being paid with a KO (3.3E) , and to go for big results. Good news! I put out 2 players, and i made a tie with the third. I lost/win on 4th place with 27E cash , 1st would be 81E ( hope that @psrquack will made it! )

I receive a mail from unibet support that i will receive the amount into my german bank account, but i need to send few documents and to do this:

"....For reasons of security, for the new account registered in Germany, you are required to provide proof of the method of payment you intend to use in the veil of conducting transactions to and from Unibet's account."

So i did a withdraw of a minimum amount and then i will deposit again for setup that.
