    Sitting here getting sucked out on all day got me to thinking.

    I wonder how much the average losing player drops in a year. Watching these people put it all in on a gutshot draw with one card to come or watching them push it in with 88 on an AKQ flop.

    They cant hit every single time, so I'm wondering how much you think the average losing player drops. I imagine these idiots that constantly play 20.00+ games are dropping 1k a month easy.

    I've noticed an interesting phenomena in poker. THERE ARE NO LOSING PLAYERS.

    I have yet to figure this out. I made 82 million last year.

    Last year was my first full year... i lost about 8k (but i had it to lose). This year I turned to cash games and turned that around. but i would imagine the avg player has got to lose 1-2-3k a year. and I have got to believe that the high majority of players are losing players.

    Playing cash games i always tag the bad fish and add them to a buddy list.. they usually last about a week (or when im really lucky a month) then are replaced by new fish.

    Also i datamine on Full tilt around the clock. I should go through sometime and look at every one and see what they win/lose. But when i do go to a new table and look at stats of everyone at the table on average 3-4 of the 5 other players at my table are negative for the hands i have on them.
