Re: $100+/hr Playing Small Stakes NL: It\'s Possible
 

Dog, do you mean per hour or per hundred hands?

Re: $100+/hr Playing Small Stakes NL: It\'s Possible
 

Sorry, I was not very clear there. For the max win I have heard from players, it is 10 big blinds per hour. For this guy's friend, I think he can sustain it.

For me, it is straight from poker tracker stats and my win is just 12.28 big blinds per 100 hands - so my per table win is just $7.38 per hour. With three tables going it is $22. an hour. At the $1/$2 table I wilt to just 6.89 big blinds per 100, or $8.25 and multi-table $25 per hour.

I've got about 20K hands at these two rates with my so-so play, so I am certain the better players are doing quite well.

I don't know about the 50BB buyin games, but I am around that winrate in the 100X BB games. (100 max buy)

My rate in the 200 max is a little closer to 12BB/100 though.

It would have to be against some incredible morons to get those kind of numbers in that structured game.

The high-end number I have been seeing for NL small-stakes games is a win rate of 10 big blinds per hour.

I'm not sure who you hang out with, but 15-20 BB/hr (big blinds) is very possible at small stake PLO games online.

I think MS Sunshine quoted 17 BB/100 for his win rate at 2/4 NLHE, so I'd be very surprised if a good players couldnt get that per hour at the low limits.

I believe the original posters friend can do this. Some can.

Re: $100+/hr Playing Small Stakes NL: It\'s Possible
 

Thank you for confirming. MS says 17BB per 100 - I said 10BB per hour 60 hands per hour yields 10.2BB per hour. Sound good?

I'm a little confused about the question on who I hang out with - unless you are saying that good players should make the 15-20BB per hour you mention for PLO as well as NLHE. If that is the case, then I guess I hang out with crappy players who only make half that. Sorry, I'll try to find better players to hang out with.

Good Ali G reference. Nice! There's another one.

yes I have beaten the lower PLO games for 15 bb per hour after about 700 hours.I make more playing PLO than any other bigbet game with similar blinds...

The smaller games I multi-table 0.25/0.50 and 0.50/1.00 got a huge boast about 2 months ago when ESPN ran the 2003 and 2004 PLO finals.It brought alot of dead money to the games..they are still playing!!

It's not $100 per hour but it easy money plus PLO is THE funnest game to play barnone for me at least.

People dont understand that a good PLO player can make the game as big he wants if he's getting any cards..so small blind games dont need to be small games!

Look at the InterPoker 0.50/$1.00 w/$100 stacks the game plays almost as big as Party's $100 Game w/$1-2 blinds...

I see you regularly playing the PS $1-2 and 0.50/1.00 PLO DogBalls....do you make that kind of money in the $1-2 game??

How many PLO games can you play simultaneously?

Re: $100+/hr Playing Small Stakes NL: It\'s Possible
 

10BB/hr just seems low for a good player in low limit bigbet games.

MS's no was for 2/4 blinds I think. I'd expect that 15BB/hr is possible lower. goodguy_1 can tell you better I'm sure.

more than you can of NLHE. The games go slower cos more multiway pots and people take forever sometimes to figure out their hands and play. PLus, you don't have to pay so much attention cos you're just nut-peddling at these stakes.
