Re: How many people will make more than $250,000 this year playing poker?
Tell me if my math is right because I'm about to end this whole argument.
This year I made about 15k in poker part-time. I've never read a book and the only forum I visit on 2+2 is NVG. Therefore, the guys that read the books and visit the strat forums definitely make more than me and a great number of them are full-timers. 3k online 12k live games There are over 5000 players (extensive research based on cardplayer of the year standings and hendonmob rankings) that play 10x the amount I play and are better than me. Therefore 5000 making at least $150k. Of those 5000 players, at least half of them are playing higher levels than myself, which would double their hourly rate and divided by the square root of the % which their skills are better than mine means that: 2500+ make $250k/year. And this is not even factoring in tournament players. So with Jerry Yang and lil hold em thrown into the equation, 2502+ @ $250k. |

Re: How many people will make more than $250,000 this year playing poker?
There's absolutely no chance it's less than 100. There are probably more than 2 dozen players that semi-regularly play in games where they can swing +/- 250k in a single session. I think it's probably around 1000 for strictly cash players, and 2000+ if tournaments are included.

My guess was 100-1,000 and I'm pissed to not be one of them.
