only a handful of the elite regs at higher stakes can make decent money. and their edges are pretty damn small too.
I don't know man, my sample size is too small right now to know for sure but obviously i wouldn't be playing if i didn't think you were wrong. I don't use pt or hm; i wrote my own hand tracking code cuz i was too cheap to upgrade past pt2. And i didn't write in code to keep track of the rake separately so i don't know what i'm paying in bb/100. So i'll just have to see where my results are once i have a larger sample.
You sound way too sure of your assertion though. I have no idea where this confidence would be coming from unless you had tried it yourself over a large sample and did not win.
My only somewhat relevant data on myself are from pre-bf where i had a solid winrate over 100k hands, but i was playing bigger then (50-200nl) and it wasn't anonymous so i'd admit its relevance is questionable.
Anyways, i was just mouthing off and didn't really expect someone to come along and attempt to put me in my place, but whatev.
