Re: What percent of onliner poker players are profitable?
It is also interesting to point out that while Party Poker took in ~$400M in revanue (rake) last year, they report that they paid out a total sum of ~$38M to their winning players.
The fact is that if someone tells you they win at poker, they are probably wrong. I love it when I meet someone who's really excited about poker that plays 4 hours live every weekend, and he confidently tells me that he makes 1 BB / hour. Unless he's been playing every weekend for 30 years, there is no way he can have any idea what his hourly rate is.
