Can Poker Make Money?

[Fuchun]

What I would like to know is that with so many players around here, how many people are profitable to play poker?

 

[ankurdholakiya]

That’s a really interesting question! Honestly, only a small percentage of poker players are actually profitable in the long run. From what I’ve seen, maybe 10-15% of players consistently make money, while the rest either break even or lose. The ones who do well usually have strong bankroll management, good game selection, and the discipline to keep improving.

Of course, luck plays a role in the short term, but poker is mostly a game of skill over time.

Power can... but dedication is needed!

Yes, you´re make money with poker, but you have to player poker all day. For to do money in the player poker, have most ability and very skill.

 

[Magallaneroy]

Of course, but only like 5% or less are winner, so you need to be real good and have good luck.

i am profitable because i have never deposited money, relying on freerolls . and now that i have a bankroll, it allows me to play tables

 

[hilary antonik filho]

It depends on what you consider profit, what you invest to win, or what you win without investing, just playing for free.

 

[okeedokalee]

Unless you are very good at the game, the answer is, probably no.

Hello, in the long term if it is possible to earn money, but you have to have discipline, study and most importantly, you have to have bank control

Live Cash are almost the only way to get a real edge at stakes that you can go pro on.

Play online for training, entertainment, and a little pocket money.

But I would never advice anyone to try to be a pro online today with all the information available. Not to mention cheating with collusion and RTA.

I retired from serious poker online around 2013. I won 10 years straight with just 3-4 months in the red during that period. People played worse at 100NL than they do at 10NL today.

i'm profitable because i only play freerolls and use that money

 

[flabilim]

sou lucrativo porque só jogo freerolls e uso esse dinheiro

Make your words my own, and when I play and with my own money that I won in poker

Poker can bring good money, but it is a consequence of good play. If you do not devote enough time to learning and wisely distribute your efforts, you can quickly lose your profit and bankroll. Ignoring psychology. A huge number of people have not achieved success in poker due to the inability to manage emotions.

According to statistics, about 5% of players are profitable, about 15% play at zero, and the remaining 80% play at a loss. You can make money playing poker, and this is real, I know from personal experience, but for this a person must do it professionally, spend a lot of time on it, constantly work on their mistakes and on their game in general, in general, take it seriously and set a goal. And then over time there will be a good result, if you put in a lot of effort. Here, as in any other area, only the best achieve good results, those who work hard. Many people play just to have fun, and do not set a goal to earn a stable income playing poker. A person plays several tournaments a day, enjoys the game and adrenaline, and this is enough for him. Today, I also play for fun, because I have a lot of other things to do and care about in life, which are priorities first, so I can not spend a lot of time playing poker, but in the future I plan to do it more seriously, it's just that the time has not come yet.

I earn little, crumbs per month but I can get rich at any moment because I have the game for it and I even just won a tournament in this wonderful community that I am very happy and flattered to find! Thank you very much CARDSCHAT! I won the silver level at 888poker today with $100 and $24 for me in first place! It's really good and I think poker is fascinating and also this community, everything is really cool!

This is a very difficult game, you need to study a lot, and you will definitely start winning))

I think there are no more than 15% of players who have a stable profit from the game in general. So 15 players out of 100 are players who make money from their game. 85% of players are those who want to make money but at the same time are willing to pay for their desire

 

[Cooking]

I don't know the right number, but definitely is less than 20%. It's not easy to be profitable in the long run.

 

[888NOX888]

With the right strategy, with the right allocation of money and the desire to play, you can have a small income in poker, but not always stable.

 

[cwdignus]

To play and win you need a winning strategy and to keep money it's the same thing, you need a good strategy to win 50% of the tournaments, buy free or very cheap tickets and know the time and amounts to be withdrawn from poker sites.

Yes, I am profitable, but not enough to pay my car and home loan installments. However, I don’t mind.

 

[john_entony]

There are specialized sites where you can find statistics on each player. But globally speaking, it's impossible to lose money if you only play freerolls.

 

[mr.fers_one]

now, of course, it has become more difficult, you need to spend a lot of time playing the game to earn money, and you need to spend even more on training)) but that's the reality of the game))

 

[Ruslan L]

I make an average of $150-200 a month. And for me, this is a good additional income. Therefore, gaming for me is not only entertainment but also a hobby that I managed to monetise

 

[Fuchun]

I just started playing poker and lost $80, so I only play free games now, but when I won a little money on free games, I lost money soon after participating in other games.
