I'd have thought that people who'd won that much money playing poker would be able to afford better swings for their garden.

I have an online bank roll that is as tight as a sieve. Yes I'm losing, but learning. I know where I am going wrong though so that's something.
I have to laugh tonight, played a couple of Party Sngs and cash, not happy at all, putting money when ahead and septics pushing their small/meduim pockets to the river, hitting and taking the money. Then played ladders on Ladbrokes, had the biggest compliment paid to me, by a departing plyaer, "f.u. pro, gl to the others" made my day, now I have a very minor inkling as to how the Rookie feels.

My dissertation was on the mini economy that is poker. I came up with 77% non-winners. I wont bore you with the econometrics behind it but I dont think it was too far off as I got a good mark!

long term i think 10-15% will be winners, its just so fast, money changes hands so fast

Due to the swings, short term this is probably about correct. Long term however I would have to think it is slightly higher.

In ring games think that the % will vary depending on the level - at the levels where the rake is biting most - average pot $60 or less - I would be surprised if 10% are winners. At higher levels I would guess that it might be as much as 25%. A lot of higher level games are funded by one or two big losers or players taking a shot at a level they are not bankrolled for and not playing well due to fear.
If more than 10% of tournament players were winners I would be surprised.

Well, there ARE lies, damned lies and statistics, but....
I have a
Poker Tracker
database with 4,140,999 hands of $3/6 LIMIT Hold Em on Party Poker.
From a total of 24,817 players recorded, 37.75 percent are winners, and 62.25 percent are losers.
The biggest winner is someone who is $1625 ahead after 13,093 hands.
The biggest loser is someone who is $1787 down after 6,146 hands.
