What is the demographic of Live poker players in 2025

I think that the demographic for Live poker players in 2025 is males 25-65 that are financially independent with disposable income. Middle to upper middle class. Professions in blue and white collar jobs.

Good summary.

Most people are not financially independent who play poker. But the typical 1/2 player is way more affluent than the typical 2/5.

Are you sure about that? "Affluent" means having a substantial amount of wealth, property, or material possessions.

Yeah, that's my guess and that's always been the table consensus at various stakes over the years. But just a guess.

Since he used the word in proper context I’d think he knew this.

I think I’d probably agree due to more older players. Can extend it to 4/8 limit

Let me correct that for you: typical 1/2 player might be generally more affluent than a typical 2/5 grinder

Recs that play 2/5 are generally more affluent than recs playing 1/2 by a significant margin (you see more OMCs at 1/2, and more Rolex watches, country club members and occupations like doctors and lawyers at 2/5)
