I play Texas Holdem.

It's not enough $$$ to be a full time role, especially considering the costs of purchasing health insurance w/o a traditional W2 employer, but it's perfectly possible to buy in for the the table max (500) and leave with between between three hundred and a thousand dollars in profit in ~8 hours of play.

(Real life, not online. "Caro's Book of Poker Tells"[1] will aid you more than fancy math, though knowing the basics of what is a good hand, what a check raise is, that sort of thing will help -- the biggest thing to remember is to play less hands, and be aggressive when you do. Fold or raise -- no calls!)
