Hey guys,

I know there's lots of talk about the amount of hands you need to determine your winning rate, but I'd thought I'd submit my BB/100 rate to see if you guys thought it was sustainable.

I am playing Party 2/4 and am losing money at a rate of -5bb/100 over the last 10k hands.

So is this rate sustainable? Keep in mind I have worked my ass off the last few months achieving this win rate and have read SSHE and TOP 73456 times.

This rate is definitely sustainable provided you have sufficient income to keep dopositing. Keep at it. Don't quit your day job. We need players like you.

Thank you very much for the reply Ponks!

It turns out I should be able to keep my losing rate between -5.7 and -4.3 BB/100 with a 95% confidence rate!

Everyone please wish me luck!

I appreciate the vote of confidence CORed. It's hard sometimes check-raising the river with Jack-high. Sometimes I just don't feel like I can keep it up.

OMG you noob! I'm beating the Party 2/4 game for a full 0.3 BB/100 over my last 10K /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Your smaple size is clearly insufficent. If, as you state, you are check-raising the river with jack high on a regular basis, your true winrate shoiuld be -7.843 BB/100. Maybe you can try throwing in some check-raises with 10 or even 9 high to get it down there.

Check-raising the river with 9-high? Now that's advanced play that I just don't know if I can achieve.

How many hands do I need to absolutely KNOW that I am a true -5bb/100 loser??

One day I hope to get all the way to -7.843bb/100. Unfortunately I just don't think that's an attainable level, even with proper table selection. It's too hard to find tables with a VP$IP under 12%.

Anyone who claims to have achieved this level is clearly a bot. I'm alerting Party.
