Re: How many people will make more than $250,000 this year playing pok
Just curious since so many people seem to think 250,000 is so commonplace in the poker yearly salary....
Where are all these players at the high stakes tables? Just at the Stars and FullTilt players, there's probably 60-100 regulars at 25/50+ no limit/limit/omaha throughout the year. And probably 1/3 are winning players. I'm basing this soley off ONLINE players. Live maybe different if you also count the donkamenters. But to say 1,000 people make $250,000 a year based off Online Poker only seems a bit absurd to me. Anything higher than 500 quite high. I'm going to quit this thread as I can already see this one building up to the hopefuls arguing how they been playing for 1 year and poker is so easy blah blah I know everything in the world because I'm on a 2 month heater blah blah blah... Yawn. |

Not that I know how to play NL, or 8-table, but I understand that there's a reasonable number of them out there, and if they play full time I can see that drawing a quarter-mil a year if they're good. Hard way to make an easy living, though. |
