Default What % of poker players are 2+2ers?

We've all thought about the topic of Poker Profitability. We've all noticed the games are getting tougher. The question is: What % of poker players are 2+2ers? Are we just beating eachother?

If you mean players worldwide and including all the people who play at home games etc. the percentage is probably something like <0.1%.

If you mean online poker players who speak English the percentage might be like two per cents at maximum.

Felt distribution at FTP (25, 50, 100 6-max):
5% - 2p2ers
75% - short stacks
5% - other rather solid players
15% - fishy

I've wondered what percentage of players on line are "students of the game", whether that means visiting this site on a regular basis, or another site, or just reading alot and analyzing and trying to improve their own game. My perception is that it's higher than people would guess.

An important thing to remember is that strong winning players have been and will be playing for a long time whereas fish are constantly flowing to and from the sites. So, there is a big difference between 'playing right now' and 'have ever played'.

I think a lot of full time gamblers we see as part time poker players. You know, when the Jai-Alai games aren't running in the middle of the night.

i agree...and more importantly just because a person posts or is a part of 2+2 that doesn't mean they are an exellent player.
