If you start off with the fact that around 30% of all on-line players never deposit, then even the most optimistic estimates come closer to reality.  Most surveys I've read put the estimates above 90% for all on-line gaming as net loosing.
 
Given that most people never figure in related costs like e-pass, and rake, or over value the return of rakeback into their profitability the reality is most forms of gambling and, yes Virginia, even poker are simply forms of entertainment.  Even the recent AGA survey shows that profit isn't even a motive for most gamblers, less than 10%.
 
When you add in to that the amount of lying about results in all forms of gambling, and human nature to remember the big wins and minimize the regular losses, if more than 5% were consistent winners online I'd be shocked.
 
Personally I refuse to deposit yet I have managed to accumulate a respectable bankroll for as an inexperienced player as I am.  If you expect to get rich on-line or even playing for a living your chances are likely better getting struck by lighting.
