Default What % are winning players?

Has somebody analyzed their databases? What percentage of players on a certain level are winning players? How the money gets distributed? Is it an exponential curve where the majority of money goes to a select few or is it more evenly spread?

The only graphs I've seen are people bragging their own graphs, let's see the big picture.

my database is like 45% winnners, BUT so many players have only 100 hands it's lol

Longterm winners are like 8%...with less than that being "real winners" (real winner = over $50 a hour for me)

Mine shows about 50% (note I am a winner, at least in the pounds column anyway).
I heard that only 1 in 10 people win so clearly something is going on.
I suspect some winners have 100's of different identities or the deal is rigged to favour crap players so it is like playing bingo, virtually all luck.
Suspicious eitherway.
I know some players different identies as they have told me so. This is supposed not to be possible.

sharkscope says about 1/3 of players are longterm winners at SnGs. wouldn't it probably be similar at all forms of poker?
