Hmm... Actual playing time, I've probably got maybe 200 hrs. If I include time spent like reading posts and watching vids and discussing hands though, it must be at least thrice that. Will likely be doing ~3 hrs a day on average in the future as well so... 9 years to go? ^^

I really don't think I'm ever going to be like, an actual good player though. Simply as the state of things is over here, with $10/hr (which I'm pretty sure I'm already making as a 25NL donk) being above average salary, poker is actually like practically the most lucrative source of income for me lol. I think I'll be able to rise to decent mediocrity and make at least $50/hour in a year or so, already that would be just an awesome income over here. But I don't honestly think I have it in me to ever break past that mediocrity. My brain muscle just doesn't have the stamina. No amount of hours will help you anywhere if you're not gifted enough.
