Re: Settle a bet: How many internet players will clear $1-Mil in 2007?
"I'm def. in the camp of "not that many players are winning huge long term" though."
problem is that 1m isnt that much for the nosebleed guys and 1 yr isnt that long, given how little the games run and how "easy" it is to win a mill. i suppose im in the minority but i would proly go with the over here.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Under 50 for sure. Across all sites there are what, only a few 50-100+ games going on? [/ QUOTE ] It's doable at 10/20 and 25/50 though. Probably even 5/10. [/ QUOTE ] Samo made 6 million at 10/20! [/ QUOTE ] LA is up 600K at 5/10, apparently, so far this year. [/ QUOTE ] Who's "LA"? Even assuming a solid winrate of 5 PTBB at 5/10 (basically $1 / hand), you're telling me he's played 600K hands this year (averaging 75,000 / month)??? Sick if true. I think # > $1M is greater than 25...and certainly under 250. I take under-125 all day long. [/ QUOTE ] I think LA is leatherass and I'm pretty sure 75,000 hands would be a very lazy month for him. I'd take under 125, but I think it's probably pretty close. I just think there are a bunch of players making this much off games that aren't in the spotlight (ie: anything that isn't NLHE on FTP or Stars).

Re: Settle a bet: How many internet players will clear $1-Mil in 2007?
i think there are a ton who make 300K-1M, but really very few who actually clear 1M. there are definitely 125 who could if they played enough, but i would guess in reality it would be more like 30-40 because the best 10/20 and 25/50 guys play like 20K hands a month and settle for lazy half mill a year etc.

Re: Settle a bet: How many internet players will clear $1-Mil in 2007?
I would guess less than 25, I talked to a few people who I think know what they are talking about and they said even less than that.

Re: Settle a bet: How many internet players will clear $1-Mil in 2007?
I think most people capable of griding a mil a year, dont put anywhere enough hands into this anymore since its perhaps more profitable and much less stress for them to do coaching / investing with existing bankroll.

Re: Settle a bet: How many internet players will clear $1-Mil in 2007?
There are a lot of poker millionaires, but clearing it in one year solely online is extremely difficult.
You'll need to be crushing 2000NL or 50/100 LHE, or be a decent winner at the nosebleed stakes. Only a few can do that. I think somewhere between 30-40, which someone else already mentioned, is about right.
