How much money does the average pro player make per year?
added by Aardvark Sep 3 '10 at 14:46

didn't vote on this, but I'd imagine that more focused and tightly defined questions of this nature could make good community wiki questions. eg. "What expectations should a player have to make money as a pro player?" – meklarian Oct 13 '10 at 16:37

Is the RNG at [some site] rigged?
added by shuttle87 Sep 13 '10 at 10:43

I voted not-a-good-example. This could be a legitimate question (especially for new sites), but the topic is contentious and is unlikely to produce good answers. – meklarian Sep 20 '10 at 17:02

What is the probability that you would get 3 aces, in a 5 player game?

This question is too vague. 5 player game of what? Hold'em? 7-Card Stud? 5-Card Stud? etc. . . Each of these would change the potential answer. – David Basarab Jul 6 '10 at 15:12

I think that it's better to post the example in your comment as your example question. Check this thread out: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/55203/… – D.H. Aug 24 '10 at 15:18

On topic but at a basic level that might make the site unattractive to pros. – Ed Guiness Jun 17 '10 at 7:38
I agree there are too many beginner poker sites, we are looking for serious questions here. I think otherwise the sites topic will be too broad. – Spasski Jun 24 '10 at 18:32
Something you can find out using Google in under 20 seconds does not belong to a site like this. – Freed Jun 28 '10 at 18:48

This could be covered in one Community Wiki that ranks the hands. – David Basarab Jun 29 '10 at 16:34
@Freed, remember one of the goals of SE (or at least SO) was to get the questions in the first page of google searches for the relevant keywords. – finnw Aug 9 '10 at 22:07
