Current poker boom - how long can it last?

[Clarkmeister]

Just wondering. I suppose when the fad is over, poker games will still be much better than they were 3 years ago, but not nearly as good as today. I'd guess we are either at the peak right now, or within one year of the peak. Maybe 2-3 years left until the fad is totally over and we settle in at what could be termed "the new norm" and level out. In other words, enjoy it while it lasts but I'd guess we will all need to improve to continue surviving at whatever level each of us is currently at as the games get tougher.
