OT: (slightly) Who loses all the money?

[DJSHAD0W]

I have been playing (micro stakes) SNG/STT now for a month or so, and can't help but notice the following:

.) Everyone claims to be a winning player
.) Most sites collect min 10% fee (ex: 1$ +10c)- 10% drain on the "system"
.) Lots of players play very loose + Calling Stations...

So who and where are all the losers?
(I can't see how rakebacks and freerolls make a huge difference in the 10% drain)

I started playing only SNG's at the beginning of April.

I'm down about 6 buy-ins and haven't taken a 1st yet, lots of 2nd's and 3rd's.

I don't claim to be a winning player, but I hope I can someday in the future.

Most losing players probably don't post here.

This has been done to death. At least 95% of regular players are losers long-term (time period >6 months). Who knows why, how, or where the money comes from. They want to step up and try to take my money, that's their decision.

pineapple is just a badass at heart =/

Look in pokertracker databases and see for yourself where the money comes from. Basically a lot of people suck at poker and think they are good. I also think 95% is way to high of a number for losing players.

People lie about their winnings. Nobody wants to say they play poker all the time and are a losing player.
