I'm not suggesting it's a cakewalk, just that "omg online poker is unbeatable!" is nonsense. Yes, some serious study may be required to compete at the higher levels. It is fairly common to pull 5% ROI from low-mid level games.
Can you imagine what today's webdev looks like to someone who used to make easy decent money crafting homepages for local business with Dreamweaver and hosting on a reseller plan, who got out of the web game but now took a quick look at what web devs do today?
And while I'm not at all certain, I think in 2017 gramps was one of those regs sticking to traditional dead formats while ignoring the massive goldmine of new format where all the fish were (jackpot sngs). Again, may be totally wrong here but I suspect not given your statement.
That said, it is obviously very difficult to match the salary of an east coast dev by playing poker these days.
