Default Re: Whats a good $$$/hour on Empire 50\'s 6 max?

you want a real answer?

it depends ..it depends on you and your game and your history as a player. What's a realistic range for an earn rate a $50 NLHE 6MAX or $100 NLHE 6MAX. I am very selective I play $100 and $200 6MAX's I put alot of time in at the $50's when the $50's where 0.50/1.00 blinds now these games are the $100's. I also put alot of time in at $25 NLHE which had 0.25/0.50 blinds those are now the $50's with the same blind structure but with 100 bb max.buy-in.

In what is now the $50 NL 6MAX's w/0.25/0.50 blinds I forced myself to play this game because I was new at NL 6MAX when the games were first introduced to Party. Realize that both my winrates for what now is the $50's and $100's is tainted by the fact that early on these games were very live and easy to beat..right now they are still good but not as good..also I only played in good games cause I play other stuff:

$50 NLHE 6MAX:

371.92 hours,roughly 29,000 hands @78 hands per hour I made $9.14 per hour or ~11.64PT bb per 100 hands. I think for someone forcing themselves to play this game everyday where they cant be as selective as I was and assuming they play well anywhere from 5PTBB/100-12.50PTBB/100 is a realistic range..better players should do 8-11PTBB/100. You do realize that 1 PTBB/100 in the $50 6MAX game is $1 per 100 hands. PTBB's are 2 times the big blind...I'm sure you know that ... So if you can net lets say 7-12PTBB/100 you are making $5.46-$9.37 per hour per table(JUST ONE TABLE)...just use 100/#hands per hour or 100/78 for a 1.28 divisor.

If you find it easy to earn 7-10PTBB/100 move up to $100's they are cake.

$100 NLHE 6MAX:

I make ~$15.99 per table per hour after 298 hours or ~ 23,840 hands thats 9.99 PTBB/100. As you move up into the $200's and above it is much harder to do 10+PTBB/100.

Aim for 5-15 PTBB/100 and hone in one 7-11 or so ..do that on a sample of 15K-25K hands and move up to the $100's..IF you are struggling to do at a minimum 5-6PTBB/100 I would not move up..The $100's are very good games you want to get in those as fast as you can so you can move thru them. Starting in the $200's you really start to make some serious money full or short if you muli-table well.

btw you dont have to 4- table the $50's you may improve faster and move up faster into more profitable games if you dont multi-table so hard.
