Default Great post....

And i think a lot of the "so called pros" will be struggling to find sponsorships as firms cut back..

The main reason for this is that the big tv tournements are attracting larger fields which means that the final tables are being made up of usually diffrent players most who havnt been sponsored.

The bigger names who play the organised tv events that are six seater invited entries will still do alright as they are getting the exposure on tv a lot more then the other less well known pros.

The main problem those smaller pros will have is stumping up the buy ins for live events and maybe will will see more of these players going back to their roots of the online game.

Maybe some will have connections that will pay the odd entry but im sure these wil be very few and far between.

As for the cash games....well players will have to drop down a few levels to be able to fund those games and obviously these levels are more competetive and on the whole the play is much looser...

Anyone who thought they can make a living out of online cash games will be in for a shock as im sure numbers will dwindle as funds disappear...

Yes i think your right Benny....maybe the bubble is about to burst....
