I know it would be winrate dependent but let's just say a "realistic" winrate if that makes any sense. What stakes but I have to make? .
also depends on how many tables you are playing.
1ptBB/100 hands 1-tabling and you gotta be playing mid-stakes to be making your $8/hr.
16-tabling and it just got easier.

Play, build your roll, study, get better, play some more and quit your job when you've made your first $3k (minimum) from poker.
