How many people will make more than $250,000 this year playing poker?

[Rainclouds]

I voted between 1000 and 2000, but thinking about it, it may be a lot more.

A while ago there was a thread about how much players would clear a million this year and I believe I was saying under 100 or something, but on the other hand, I think the 250K-1M group is enormous.

There are 2/4 NLHE HU players who already win >250K/year.

Every 2K NLHE pro should be above 250K/year since that's only 10 buyins/month for them, which is easy if you are a winning player.

Every 50/100 LHE pro should be above 250K as well since 1250 big bets / year isn't that much.

If you play high stakes omaha you just have to run hot for a couple of sessions.

Then there is the large group of live players who run hot this year, the large group of tournament players with big scores......

I think it might be above 2000 players, but it's more than 1000 for sure anyway.
