Default Re: How many poker pros can net over $150k per annum?

For the successful, full-time, multi-tabling 15/30 guys it shouldn't be that out of reach.


$150k/yr = $3k/wk
That's $600/day if you play 5 days a week.

$600 is 20BB at 15/30.

If you earn 1BB/hr per table (or about 1.6BB/100 or so) then that's just 20 table-hours per day.....OR 5 hours of 4-tables.

If you're an 8-tabler earning less than 1.6BB/100 (maybe 1.2BB/100 or 0.75BB/hr perhaps) you can probably do it playing 3-hours a day for 5 days a week. You'll be making 0.75BB/hr on 8 tables for a total of 6BB/hr = $180/hr.
So it will actually have to be closer to 3.5 hours to earn your $600/day.

This, of course, assumes you have the necessary bankroll to sustain the swings and you really are winning 1BB/100 or more at 15/30.
