Hourly Rate

[boc4life]

How many hours of play do you guys think it takes to get a fair idea of your hourly rate? Using PokerTracker I've now kept track of 70 hours, 6,850 hands. My hourly rate still goes way up after a good session, way down after a bad one...When does this start to flatten out?

I assume you're not multitabling. I don't think it's as much of a function of hours played as it is hands played. Mine started to level out around 100,000 hands but there will always be some fluctuation. 7k hands is definitely on the low end.
