The price range is all over the map. For software licensing alone, expect between 20,000 up to 100,000 generally. Some of the poker network providers will ask you for a business plans, others do not. Some will let you piggy back on licensing, others again - not.
If you target the European market, a standalone poker site traditionally doesn't do well. Go for a multi platform solution. More expensive than a standalone poker solution, but better results from marketing and high revenues on a per player basis.
If you look to start from the ground up, with no database etc. look on having a good amount of capital for the project. $250,000+, even when using a networked solution. Again, it all depends on the provider you choose, what goals you have, marketing experience and avenues etc.
