I kept records of people I played the 10/20 with and there were at least 50 10/20 players who played regularly as of middle of last year. When I am at FW on Fridays and Saturdays (mostly playing 20/40) and I stop by the 10/20 tables to say hi, I know most of the players. So I would say no, most have not started playing 1/2 NL - and very few have started playing 20/40.
However, some of the donators in that game did stop playing and at least one I know of has started playing 1/2 NL. A loose LHE player might fare better at NL. But most of the loose 10/20 LHE players I knew were also very passive so I'm not sure how that would work out in NL.
I would guess that the problem is that the game itself is very tight and hard to win big consistently. And the trends may be that the game is starting later and ending earlier. It used to be that at least one 10/20 game would run through the night on Fridays anyway. Maybe its dying earlier. But I wouldn't count out the game for that reason. At the Borgata the only high limit game that runs through the night is the 40/80 and the 20/40 game didn't start until 11am on Saturday. But by Saturday evening there were at least 4 20/40 tables going.
My prediction would be that the 10/20 will run no problem on Fridays and the weekends. I have no idea what will happen during the week.
