Winning percent - how big in average?

[Cyric]

Hi Sharks

How big should a session winning percent be? Mine is approx. 10-12%. Is this average?

[Evan]

what do you mean? percent of sessions that you win? 12% is not good if that's what you're talking about.

I mean in average how many hands should i win (out of total hands played)?

When you say "play" do you mean see the flop, or do you count hands you fold pre-flop.

10% of the time you see the flop is probably a bit low, but it doesn't matter because this statistic is generally not very important.

Your $/100 hands is the only relevant statistic regarding your longterm performance.

[btspider]

it varies by limit/style, a rough estimate at 2/4 may be winning 30%-35% of flops seen and seeing 21%-24% of flops for a 7%-8% hands won. TAGs generally win less than their share of pots (in terms of #, not $$).

who cares tho, this is purely an effect stat. also, don't analyze any stats like this for a single session, the sample size is far too small.

Well first of all its BB/100. Second of all I wouldn't say that's your only relevant stat, mainly because there are other stats which you have more control over that BB/100 is a function of.
