how much does a good poker player make?

im curious as to how much a pro poker player would make. sng's and ring games.

i know my roi is 18% through 500 games. obv this is good but how good? what would someone like doyle brunson's be? 30%? 35?

i know it's a diff scenario because he's playing at much higher stakes

Yep 18% ROI is good, but 1st what stakes you playing? Then you need to realise that 500 games sample is so so small to have a real true roi.

Some online regs will play 200 a day! SnG's can experience huge variance and 500 games is not really a big enough sample size to bas a judgement on yet. Get to 2000-3000 games then your ROI should start to show some resemblence to your true figure.


It's difficult to quantify a good players earnings b/c it depends. It depends what limits there playing, how well there running etc etc. One of the leading sng players is a chap called spacegravy, who plays on Stars. Check out his stast on sharkscope, but don't get carried away with them.
