1) If you play FULL 25PL or 25NL approx. 65% of the hands will be raked, so allow about 1400-1500 hands to clear the bonus.
2) If you play FULL .50/1.00 approx 60% will be raked, so allow 1600-1700 hands
3) If you play FULL 1/2, approx 75% will be raked, so allow 1300-1400 hands

I usually get 50-60 played hands an hour for each table that I play ( I take breaks ). 4 tables NL25 usually takes me about 6 hours to clear.

6-MAX tables clear at a better pace, but if you are new to multi-tabling or 6-MAX play, I would not recommend starting out with them.

Thanks very much -- that's exactly the kind of specific information I was looking for! And while I may be a poker idiot, I'm not about to start out multitabling the 6-max in my first venture online. Actually, I thought I'd play for a few days, and when I crush the game for the inevitable 100BB/hour I read so much about ("Am I too good?"), THEN I'll try that! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
