What's a good BB/100?

[Nikademus]

I've seen reference to BB/100 being the main stat to care about, so I'm curious how I'm doing.

I've just hit my first 20,000 hands (mostly limit poker until recently), and have a 2.36 BB/100. Since May 1, I have a 3.7 BB/100 with about 6,700 hands, so it looks like all the reading and playing is paying off. Anyway, just curious where people's BB/100s are.

A great winrate will vary from different levels. I believe .5/1 can be beat for close to 4bb/100 over the long run. Maybe more. At 100/200 I imagion 1.5bb/100 would be amaising.

That said my winrate from my current database at 3/6 (about 24,000 hands) is 3.03bb/100. I've been running good /images/graemlins/grin.gif I dont think this is sustainable.

4,592BB/100 would be great.

I settle for 2BB/100, though.

Like the first poster said i think it varies depending on the limit u play. From reading threads like this in the past it seems 4 or 5 is pretty good for party.5/1 games and 2 to 3 is good for 2/4 after that i dont know. I think anything over 1 at the higher limits is good.

There are many threads like this(understatement). Use the search button. U likely wont get many replies (nonsarcastic) because this kind of thread is beaten into the ground.

3.7 is pretty good.. but 7.2 would be great.

NL a good one is based on big blinds, or half a big bet, but 20bb/100 is considered great, 10-15 is considered respectable.

micro through .5/1 - 2BB/100 is good, 4bb/100 is lucky
1/2-3/6 -- 1 to 2BB/100 is good, more than 2 is probably lucky
the big game (4000/8000) - .1 to .25/100 is good

[SoftcoreRevolt]

4 BB/100 at .5/1 isn't "lucky" at all, several people have sustained 5-7BB/100 over 30K-50K hands.

I'd say 4 BB is very realistic at .5/1 for most players, while 5+ may just be running well for a long period of time.

For what level is 10-15 "respectable" by your standards?

From the micro forum FAQ:
[ QUOTE ]
Since its asked all the time, a 3 BB/100 winrate at .50/1.00 (online) is often regarded as great. 6 BB/100 is probably unsustainable. Once you reach 2/4 (online), 2 BB/100 is great for the long term and 4 BB/100 may be unsustainable.
