Re: How many online pros average +500k a year in the world?
I agree with the sentiment that very few MTT/donkament pros clear $500K annually on a consistent basis.
Officialpokerrankings provides a profit table for the past 120 days on all the sites they track. There are 27 tourney players that have cleared >$167K. Obviously, only a small fraction will maintain that win rate for an entire year (120 days X 3). On the other hand, the number is underestimated by the use of multiple IDs on different sites.
I'd guess (admittedly wildly) that there are a dozen or fewer mtt pros that have maintained a 500K annual win rate over the past 3 years, strictly from online mtts.
