say someone is 8 tabling 109s. say they get 10 in per hour. say they have a 10% ROI. they will earn slightly over 100$ an hour. When I played 4 tables of 200nl 6max, I earned 110$ an hour.

What about people who can 12-16 table. It would be hard to believe that anyone could do that profitably at a 200nl 6 max.

The thing that makes the hourly rate go up in SNGs is the fact that you can multitable them much easier than you can in cash games. Yes they do get short handed but for the most part its either push or fold, which in turn makes 12-16 tabling not out of reach.

ok, so now were 16 tabling. at a 10% ROI. correct me if I'm wrong, but that is damn optimistic, if not unreasonable. we're looking at 200$ an hour, + rakeback. that is definitely earnable if you are a strong 400nl player. and there are soft 1000nl games.


all im saying is that there is a higher ceiling for cash games, and player who focus on them will ultimately become better, more fully equipped poker players. if you are happy with your hourly rate x tabling y limit, great for you. thats good. im not knocking sngs and saying theyre a waste of time, just that I would learn cash games.



there are things that complicate this though. 16 tabling = a dropoff in ROI and burnout. you cant 16 table for long. and i bet it would be possible to 8 table 200 nl 6m, though I havent tried.
