I doubt 5% of players are doing it for a living. Plenty of people just play a couple of games online a month or once every couple of months at a casino. Plenty of others are losing players, then some breakeven players, then some winning players who have jobs, then some winning players who make a good amount but do other things as well, then actual pros. I'd say the actual pros are 1% of the total players.

Totally agree with you. I would say that the number is even lower than 5%. I would say my case. I want to be a winning player with a good earning amount but i don't see myself playing poker as my main activity

My husband played for a living for a few years, but in the end wanted to do other things. It's a tough way to make a living, and very stressful.

I think that 3% of the players win an amount of money that allows them to be millionaires, and I think that 20 % of players earn an amount of money that allows them to live poker , but not to become millionaires

I think these numbers are correct, with the caveat that they should be percentages of winning players.

Since about 10% of all players are winning players, that would mean that 2% of all players earn an amount that allows them to live off poker, and 0.3% earn an amount that allows them to be millionaires.

Seems more realistic, imo.

Fully agrees that earn game of poker time-consuming and complicated process. I was engaged for some time and from personal experience znayu.Etim may engage in about 1% of the players. Always earn poker player can be even less.

I believe that this higher percentage, around 15% if we compare this estimates the large number of online players, vejos that this number is still very low, then live of poker, only the best

If we consider online poker, I think 2%. If we consider the offline poker I think that 4%.
