I mean, you aren't entirely wrong. Poker is literally a zero sum game, in order to generate money you have to take it from somewhere else - in other words another player. When players are of an equal skill level there is no profit margin - your all handing around chips and losing money because of rake.

People who make a living off of poker are few and far between - and the ones that can do it are generally living an extremely poor lifestyle.

Even people like Tom Dwan / Isuldur are vastly overrated - they are products of extreme endorsements and an era of really bad poker.

That being said, there are still bad players live and online. Good players can easily win at the micros, and as long as there are new players and recreational players there will ALWAYS be some dead money at the table.

Ultimately, profitability is basically dependent on the skill levels of players around you - these days in NLHE the skill gap is closing.

If you want to crush it learn another game, teach yourself PLO and I can assure you that your earnings will quadruple.
