Default Re: 10% of poker players are winners???

This 10% number is made up to make the people that loose feel better about themselves and to make the winners feel superior. It is more than 10%.

If you play at a table with 1 bad person the bad person takes care of the rake. That leaves the rest of the players to fight for the rest. And it is pretty rare to play at a table with only 1 bad person. Mt guess would be 75% lose and 25% win. It is my experience that there are not a lot of break even players. You either get it or you dont. I am not that great at poker and I find winning fairly easy... so stop with the 10%.

Party collects about 40$ rake at a .5/1 table. If you have 2 2BB/100 players and 2 break even players 6 players have to lose 44$ /100. that means you have 6 players who lose on average more than 7BB/100.
