sure the games are full off regs these days. Luckily, regs usually suck enough so that you still can make a decent profit.
I hope eventually US fish will be able to come back, I seriously dream of the day. |

All that is happening is that poker is becoming more of a competition of skill for more people rather than gamble. Which of course means that it takes much more effort to make money than just learn the good starting hands and patience to wait for something good. Now you need to outthink the oposition. The better players will still be winning against the worse players. |

Yes of course. The bar of skill will simply go up and the pool of available money will go down. Better players will always beat worse players. Some of the better players at limit X now will find themselves being one of the worse players at the limit X in the future. They'll have to go down to limit Y, then limit Z, etc.
Also when the edge gets smaller it leads more to variance and luck than skill really. For example, in a vacuum, player A would win 51% vs. player B who will win 49%. Variance will determine who will win this matchup. Player A could simply run bad then get emotionally altered as a player or have to move down. |

Just because I said I could probably earn more in the real world doesn't mean I play micro stakes. Not everyone would have to go to McDonalds if poker didn't work out pal. |
not sure if this is another if your hilarious levelling games or something but i was responding to byrnesam in my post, not u. i agree that the games now are drying up a lot and you have to be really good and disciplined to make consistent money, much more so than ever before. |
agree, although games i play are still easily beatable but they're definitely more tough than they were T_T; |

If folk in Asia start playing we won't have to worry about the Americans coming.
They have to be the biggest degen gamblers ever. |
