Default Re: Poll: Your bb/100 at .5/1 PP NL Full Ring

Big blind / 100 is scaled with the stakes, regardless of the actual money changing hands. Thus it is used to describe the relationship between the player's win rate and the rest of the table, regardless of the stakes.

Poker tracker somewhat complicates the situation by using "big bets" (grandfathered in from limit poker) as the default value for BB/100 (confusing since big blind / 100 is the general marker for no-limit poker).

Generally as the games go up in stakes the player will be able to achieve a lesser bb/100 because of better opposition. For example, a good player could make 10PTBB/100 at .1/.25, but only be able to make 3PTBB/100 at .5/1.

The original poster wanted to get a feel for how much people who read the forum win in terms of bb/100, which is a silly question asked about ten times or more per week.
