Me and my friend disagree who makes more per hour.

This would be considering its a B&M casino.

Also please post approx. win rates for a "good" winning player, as he doesn't believe anything I say.

All your posts and you don't know how to use the search function for the hundreds of threads on win rates? /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Totally dependant on what the games are like. For an "average" game:


$6/$12 player is making $20 an hour

$2/$3 blinds I have not seen - $2/$5 blinds player is making $10 an hour

For the limit game, a very good player might make another $5 per hour.

For the no limit game, a very good player might make another $25 per hour.

Nobody has specifically mentioned these two limits and compared them.

Also this isn't for my knowledge, but his.

I don't have too much experience with live NL, but this seems REALLY LOW. Esp since the live NL games that I've played in have been considerably looser than NL 50 or NL 100 on Party. Even if you only got 25 hands per hour, so 100 hands every 4 hours, a good player should certainly be able to make $25 per hour. That would be 10 BB (PT stat) per 100, which shouldn't be too undoable in a live NL game. A really good player could likely make much more than that, esp if the game was really juicy. Of course it depends on stack size and stuff like that too.

$20 also seems high for B & M 6-12... I don't remember the 2+2 book for sure, but I think it was "Gambling for a living", where they say that VERY FEW people make $20 per hour in 6-12. Basically you need to be REALLY GOOD, and most people who are that good are playing higher limits. This figure might be easier to achieve now though, if SSHE is applied properly.

if you're talking about the chumash 6/12 and 100NL games, I've spent a good amount of time in each game.

the 6/12 games are almost always good with lots of action

while sometimes the 100NL game can range from a rock garden to an all-in fest. during the rock garden phase the game is absolutely terrible and i'd make more playing 2/4. during the all-in fest stage I can pull in a bundle. how much exactly? i dunno. but i'd say on average the 6/12 game is more profitable.

I am.

I finished up $170 in like 3 hours at that game last night.... you know the game you should have been in.

I'm contemplating taking the bus up tommorow morning and playing in the games after the tourney, does this sound like a bad idea?

There was only 1 guy there that almost impressed me, named Brandon, youngish guy with a goatee who says he was from Santa Maria and I've seen him there almost every time I go. He was up like $400 in 2 hours, always picked really good spots.

Everyone else sucked.

Lots of all ins, if there was no raise there'd be 6 to the flop. Somebody reraised me all in with AQo for like $80 when I held AKs.... crap like that. Another guy called my $50 raise preflop with TT, etc.

The best thing ever: Guy with $300 UTG goes all in for his whole stack preflop. Everyone folds.

from what i've heard the games after the big tourney's are always ripe with fish that bust out early.

i go back to goleta tommorow. i might head on to chumash. hopefully they'll finally have their 10/20 games running. if not i can come sweat you in the NL game if you're there.

I played both games regularly in San Francisco. 6/12 is by far the more profitable game in my mind. 2BB/hr is very acheivable in 6/12. The time charge for 1/2 NL is just brutal. I'm not good enough to get $25 an hour in 1/2 NL without a charge, and the charge costs something like $12 an hour. Plus NL hands go slower so you get fewer hands per hour in.
