What percent of poker players turn a profit playing poker

[upay4mytreez]

I'd say 5% or less can actually make a living with a good balance between poker and life.

[gimmeabrew]

The chance of turning a profit is 50%.

Either you turn profit, or you don't.

50%.

[JLynn171]

26.342% turn profit or some where in about that area just a guess i could be way wrong

Ima say around 22 to 23%. Remember Good BR management can help u reduce your losses, but requires discipline.

If people didn't ever turn a profit then why would they keep putting money in?
We'll assume you're asking questions to decide whether or not you want to make money off poker.
Here's my advice.
Play first, a lot. Get a feel of the game. Then read. Anything and everything and try to incorporate new ideas. Never stop learning. Knowledge will always give you an edge over your opponents. At first you will lose. Then you might win. Then you'll probably lose it all. Then you'll find the common ground, the poker money trade. Then you'll need to develop past that.
