Any true pro grinds out an incredible amount of hands and has learned to not tilt. Most pay their bills from rakeback, knowing if they play a certain amount hands in a month at a given level, they will get X amount from rakeback. This is a must given the variance.

Source: I have played well over a million hands of poker and know (or use to know) many professionals. Being a poker pro is one of the most soul crushing professions out there. Pros still tilt. And rakeback grinders are pretty rare nowadays since a lot of sites have cut down on rakeback perks.
