Is it safe to believe that it will still be possible to make a living playing online poker 40-50 years from now though?

I don't think it will be possible even five years from now, because they're currently developing a kind of computer Big Blue to play a perfect poker game, so once that gets out there, it will be Game Over.

LOL, this is not much of a concern at all IMO. Poker is a much different animal than chess.

The bigger concern here, is why the heck is the OP playing SNGs when cash games are available?

I agre for many forms of poker. But I would think most current sng structures could be beaten by a computer, particularly the several lower levels like $50 and below.
