I simply wish to point out that I daytrade for a living (in 2007, mind you) and I'm definitely not alone in the business, and am certainly not complaining about the money that's available out there.

Granted, there might not so be as many Joe-Street-Corner in the day-to-day markets as there were 7 years ago, but to say the niche has taken a hit the way you seem to predict poker will is pure sensationalism (both for poker and daytrading).
