- Poker is a game of extreme variance. Professional poker players can go stretches without winning or placing at a level that earns any cash. The wins, however, can make up for the droughts with players earning thousands to millions of dollars depending on the game or tournament entered. Considering poker is an inconsistent sport, players look to offset the risk involved. This is done through staking, where an "investor" will pay a player's way through tournaments for a piece of the action.

Who Makes Money From Professional Poker?
When i realize that i was just watching a full ad of youstake at 21 minute mark...
The answer is the people running the poker sites, casinos, and home games.
Words of a losing player, Papi!
@@natd3361 I don't think making $100k-$200k is much in the grand scheme of things when poker sites are making 250mm/quarter
They shoulda made a 20 minute video strictly on Pot Limit Omaha hahah
joeingram1 papi why you block me on UA-cam ? Love all your video’s nr1 on UA-cam :-)
More Rake is Better
So it's about gambling on gambling.
Pretty much just like the stock market! Don't forget that probability has its roots in the analysis of games of chance.
@@terrypotato Come on man... you can't compare. Everyone makes money in the stock market in the long run. In gambling people lose everything in the long run.
@@Richard-yy8tn You're more wrong than you're right here, and you have very little right. Yes, the market makes money in the long run, but that does not equate to everybody making money. Plenty of banks, funds and traders have gone broke by not managing their risk correctly, and/or betting against market direction (either at a macro or micro level). Individual managed returns have also largely trailed the market returns.
Secondly, poker is (essentially) a zero-sum game, not a house game, meaning you're not playing against a fixed absolute house edge, you're betting on your relative skill advantage vs your opponents (very similar to trading markets). The house only takes a fee for administering the tournament, you're not betting against them. Plenty of people have been profitable over an extremely large sample spanning several decades.
You could say that, but its more similar to diversification. Its very difficult for individual players to press their edge over a large sample, because each tournament is so time consuming yet also relatively infrequent, with long periods of no returns broken up with oversized windfalls, meaning risk of ruin can also be quite high if bankroll management isn't employed correctly and/or the player goes through an extended rough patch.
So it becomes a question of, would you rather stake a) 1 player with a 10% edge on the field, or b) stake 5% of 20 players with a 10% edge? With the second scenario, your individual return will be smaller for any specific tournament, but your ROI will still be the same, with much less volatility and more frequent payouts.

Hahahahahahahahahahah
Nicr

dude is a fraud
lmaooo x)
As someone that does play poker for a living, I strongly recommend sticking to cash games. Sure, the huge potential payouts aren't there, and neither is the glamour, but it's far more consistent and having a backer is much less important. You don't need as much of a bankroll to sustain yourself, as generally speaking, a hundred buy ins of the stakes you play at is fine (plus a buffer for living expenses, as mentioned in the video). Taking 1-3 No Limit as an example, 500 is usually the maximum buy in for that game (depending on some houses). So for a professional player, having $50,000 is a very safe poker bankroll to have. And on a tax note, tournament winnings are reported to the IRS whereas cash game profits are impossible to track. Not that I suggest tax fraud in any way. You should always report your full and proper winnings to the Government. Of course.
It won't make you into a millionaire overnight, but it's certainly something that you can consistently make a comfortable living doing. And as you become a better player and increase your bankroll, you can increase your stakes to the 2-5 and 5-10 games, until you are making six figures a year. No backers needed.
Right! Cash is a far superior form in so many ways. Tournament is a different beast... it truly is law of large numbers. I am almost never forced to flip in cash games
I actually dont enjoy tourneys nearly as much as cash games.
@Hawk Who Knows All Yeah, America. Ya know, where a large percentage of the professional poker player base comes from. So your "nobody pays tax on winnings" isn't even close to accurate.
IMO cash is the best way to improve as you touched on but I wouldn't scoff completely at tournaments. Generally speaking, if you put in the work to get good at cash, your edge in tournaments will also increase greatly as the the fields are generally softer.
@Hawk Who Knows All All poker/ game of change winnings are tax free in the EU! Viva la EU
The Casinos. About 4% of all professional poker players are profitable over the long term. Everybody else is a lifetime net loser in poker.
Hahaha, just like the stock market, yet im successful at poker before i joined the stock market, and then i realised, they have the same decipline and same account management and psychological capabilities.
These things look seriously tough, but they aren't if you study well enough, it took me 3yrs to perfect the stock market cus everything they were teaching me was the same as playing Poker! including position sizing and initial trade plan
You're including the rake in that 96% figure? Otherwise, that is way overstated.
Can you really be called a professional poker player if you aren't profitable?
@@ph34rocious Yes. Most of them aren't. Lots of financial advisors don't beat the market and they are calling themselves professionals. Same thing.
@@Myor824 You misunderstand what a financial advisor does then.

I'll never forget watching Chris moneymaker playing. We were 12-13yo at the time and I started hosting games at my dad's house with friends from school.

Disagree! If anything, it's a great way to hide income.

Uhm, professional Poker Players?
Tim Rechner i have no idea what that title is saying lol
Lots of people actually make money. First, the hosts of the game will charge rent or rake, or alternatively tournament fees. To win in poker as a player you must first be better than your opposition by at least the margin of those deductions. The house always wins - even in the Poker Room.
Tournaments also make money for sponsors.
And of course, backers make money too.
But the professionals making money are mostly people you never or rarely see on TV, because they mostly play in cash games rather than tournaments. They do this because there is no exposure to unlikely tournament freeze outs. (elimination)
Did you watch the video at all?
@Peter Lustig . Your wrong. The house makes most of its money on slots and the amount of good players to the bad ones puts the odds in the houses favor, They make money no matter what, so even someone making a couple million on poker or blackjack wont put a dent their. We have a place to play because all the other idiots are losing
This is not about poker. This is about poker tournaments.
Yes and that’s what they missed in the story. Like my comments above “staking” is known from way back with shooting pool. But really it makes sense with these tournaments because a lot of them have some big finish money
Think about it a second: If those pros win money in the long run, there are those poor bastards loosing too much money on poker tournaments. They are just not considered "pro" and there is probably none backing them.
Just a lot of people with a severe gambling disorder.
Most of those are enjoying a hobby. They are paying for entertainment. Also, everyone starts as a losing poker player - at some point they have an equal chance at becoming a winning plyer.
@IloveBlender *losing. Huge differences between losing and loosing. They have completely different definitions.
There are also a lot of wealthy people playing poker who can afford to lose. Not every losing player is a degenerate gambler.
It's not a 'severe gambling disorder' if you have other sources of income, then it's just a 'hobby'.
My friend is a pro technically. Brandon Miller you can look up his wsop rankings. Yes he’s won 90k-20k and recently 18k with a total of over 200k in winning. The 90k he blew in 5 months playing poker the 18k he just won a month ago was gone in 2 weeks all playing poker. He’s always broke and most of the time he wins 5k he has to give almost 4K away every time because someone is buying his action within the course of a 4-5 day tournament plus the drive and hotel he’s lucky to go home with $200. So yea he’s made close to a quarter million dollars he’s probably lost more than a million. Poker is not the way if you have a gambling addiction.
So basically gambling on gamblers and your chances of losing are exponentially greater then gambling on stock markets. Nothing can go wrong there at all.
Nope, you’re betting on who is going to win. It may be riskier for other reasons but not because the path is longer
You know the disclaimers if you know enough to talk about stock markets and gamblers gambling on gamblers! LOL

EXCELLENT video, very well done by CNBC telling the story of how staking works. Makeup is usually what buries a player for good... all about great money management and having no vices/life leaks.... very few can honestly do this successfully

You get 1/2 of true odds. I get the other 1/2 and you still me the buy-in. "Makeup" preys on addicts. It is a crime.

@illusory Big chunk of casinos don't even get a single 5-10 game going. Weekdays most places are full of regs burning rake and giving chips back and forth in flip spots. Now what can a really good 3-5 player realistically make factoring wrong side of variance streaks and having worthy advantage only on weekends? Maybe 100k if they are really REALLY good? There are cities in US that kind of pay doesn't even crack low income line. Reality is very few people in poker make good money outside of card room operators and online poker sites. Heck with proper bankroll needed for 3-5 one might as well learn to day trade stocks if feel the need for gambling aspect. That way at least if you are in the 5% to survive learning process you can make real money. But I am sure you are poker pro making countless millions.

Do the individual tournaments allow stake/backing deals to be registered with the tournament? The casino would pay the player their agreed upon percentage and the backer theirs. This would prevent whoever cashes out from running off with the money. It would encourage more staking and backing which is good for the game and therefore good for the house.
It would also protect the backer from a player trying to sell more than 100% of the action.
I need this back when i played alot
We were doing this for bowling tournaments back in the early 1990s I was part of a stable with three other guys and we had one financial backer she took care of the tournament entries and we split the money with him if we won or cashed
Pool was traditionally a sport or game that involved staking from way way back. Movies like Color of Money and actually pretty sure mentioned in The Hustler with Gleason and Newman. Pretty sure Jackie Gleason had a real life interest in staking. But there’s definitely a history in Pool with the topic
I refuse to be backed or back another player. Invest in yourself
Jon Jones how many hundreds of thousands do you spend on Tournaments entries?
Agree.
Unlike any other media report on poker this was extremely factual. It did sound like a commercial for the backing sites but was nonetheless right on point.
It's curious CNBC didn't talk about the issue of conflict of interest when a financial backer is playing in the same tournament and even sometimes on the same table as the person they have a stake in.
@Micheal Williamson Poker is not a team game. Conflict of interest means you won't be playing poker as it is meant to be played. If at the same table as a person you staked, you'll be playing with leniency to that player. Other players dont know there is some level of cooperation.
Playing at the same tournament isn't a conflict of interest. Only when at the same table. And that's for the casinos to catch.
Hmm...sky's the limit/wide-open for collusion/corruption...deal me in, suckers

I think there's a lot of value to be realized from selling 480% of your action in a tournament.

@@vegasjay2326 The casino would want a 10% cut for 'administration' lol.
Contracts are written up but it's like a business investment, you aren't going to get involved with a partner who might cut and run and there's safeguards against that, like a reputation to protect etc.
Seems to me that would be a pretty good scam.. if you win a tournament then you sell 500% stake for your next few tournaments. Then you lose on purpose. Its ALWAYS easier to lose than it is to win.
If you think about it.. they higher a player is "staked" the less incentive they have to win.

I got interested in poker the year before Moneymaker, also by watching on ESPN. After moneymaker, played online for a while. Started with $100 on Party Poker. Played all night the first day in a 1/2 limit game. Ran well in an incredibly weak game and made $84 that night. Played online for an hour or so almost every day for the next few years. Ran it up to a bit over $10,000 in 3/6 limit and lower, 1/2 no limit and lower, sit n gos, and a fair amount of deposit bonuses. Cashed out as I went, never kept more than about $1500 on the site. After UIGA passed, Party Poker excluded USA players and I pretty much quit playing online. I did play a bit on Full Tilt but luckily I lost interest and pulled my money out well before they shut it down and the player money disappeared. That was some real run good.
Put the winnings into stocks around 2008/2009 to buy low as the market came apart. Grew it to $36,000, sold in late 2018, and used it to pay down some of my mortgage early.
So no million dollar winner here, but a pretty good return on $100 and I had a lot of fun playing.

Shouldn’t gamble at all. That’s the basics to getting rich. If you were to play poker. I would play tournaments instead of cash. You invest so little to win so big. Where as in cash, you’re grinding for eternity to make what you could have in one tournament.
Kev Dawg you’re absolutely right! Thank god I had the will to quit after being a junky for it. Playing 3 day sessions without sleep. Losing 200k in the past 4yrs. I admit, I had no discipline. I just loved the game too much. Never wanted to walk away.
I played one big tourney in my life. It was the MSPT in Battle Creek, MI. Won a $1,100 seat by playing a $75 satellite. Finished in 99th place out of 2,900. Which rewarded me $2,750. 1st place was at 220k, 2nd place was at 190k.
Now which cash game will pay you out $220k for a $75 buy-in?
Chris Moneymaker, $40 satellite earned him $2.5 mil. Where else can you buy in for $40 and win 2.5 mil?
Cash games are for dummies, and egotistical men in my opinion. Who do it for entertainment. Tournaments are for true poker players.
@@eddilovee cash is a real poker where you make money by exploiting the opponents, in tournaments its the same but there is a lot of luck involved due to the increasing of the blinds.
while its absolutely possible to start with 75$ and play only cash games and reach 220k, it just takes a lot of time and incredible discipline.
while those stories with 40$ and made 2.5m he has been very very lucky

UNIQUE LoL apps for some one like Doug Polk, I can see turning $75 into $220k. Trust me, I was no average poker player. There weren’t too many poker tables I sat at without being complimented on my game from pure strangers. I played all across the U.S. full time. Name me a city, and I’ll tell you the closest casino to it. I played at the Harrah’s and Sugar House in Philly. Horseshoe Hammond, Horseshoe Council Bluffs, Horseshoe Baltimore, Horseshoe Cleveland, Jacks Cleveland, Jacks Cincinnati, Hard Rock Seminole Hollywood, FL, Aqua Calienta Palm Springs, Ca, Firekeepers Michigan, Ameristar St. Louis, Ameristar KC, Hollywood Toledo, Hollywood Aurora, IL, MGM Detroit, Motorcity, etc.
I played all kinds of Poker. My only lesson for you guys is. Don’t end up like Stu Ungar.
