well... lately life have thrown a few curve balls... i broke up with my g/f not to long ago, and because i'm an idiot and didn't take a summer course i have been bored out of my mind, so i have been going out and recklessly partying with friends all the time (thank god some of them like me enough to help with the money for that haha.. although it's more of returning the favor for when i provided for them). Which is usually not my style i was always more of a weekend warrior. Currently i'm a full time college student (fall starts in 1 week) which i won't change because i'm aware getting a degree is the best possible choice for any person.

Note: I cashed out my roll a few months back for financial reasons with family.

Now thanks to gitm.ace aka mike, who gave me 50$ on 8/22 to play a little poker for entertainment purposes because he's just a pimp like that. With some luck I managed to get it up to a little over 200$ Although i'm clearly aware i'm not one of the select few who is going to make a career out of this, i would like to use it as a part time job to finance college and the few meager bills i do have to pay. I have dabbled all over in the poker world with tournaments//cash//sng/hu and had moments in each. What would be the best route to try to accomplish this as a part time job be in your opinions?

Poll: Which should i try?
(Vote): Cash
(Vote): Tournaments
(Vote): Sng
(Vote): HU

anyone who votes i would appreciate a short explanation of why.

When i stopped playing i was beating 25nl and taking 3bi stop loss shots at 50nl

Tournaments i won 1 of note worth slightly over 2k, then took down some smaller stuff as well

Sng played 3.40's and 6.50's 9/10mans to build my roll initially

HU just fun although with its ridiculous variance i doubt anyone would choose it

Thanks in advance to everyone

depends on what hourly rate ur aiming for.

Superturbos are pretty cool if you know what you are doing because you dont need to think at all and can play at any time of the day (tired or not/tilted or not). Also, once you reach a certain skill level you dont need to improve too much and can just grind mindlessly. However, only the low stakes ones are +EV so ur hourly wont be too high. IF you have never played them tho, the initial frustration can attain epic levels

Otherwise, cash is obv the most solid choice.

Yo u should come down for a weekend sometime in september or october if possible, me cosmo and our new roomate tj just got a sick house 1 block from the beach 'wind and sea' in la jolla.

We can go out at night (duh) and during the day we can play some pokers. I'd suggest cash games or multi table sngs, both I could help u with.
