That doesn't surprise me at all.
Look through all the games going on on a poker server like stars/party, and you will see that at any given time there are hundreds of ring games, with atleast a dollar a hand being taken for rake. Some simple multiplication and its not that hard to see how much money comes in.
If anyone is looking for a wise business to start, get some programmers to throw together your own poker interface/ server , and get up and running. Even just hosting simple buy-ins with a rake you can make a mint.
