9.2 BB/Hr a good win-rate? (LC)

[IbrakeFORrivers]

??? Yes or no is ok.

Over 100k hands, yes. Over 100 hands, who knows?

[IbrakeFORrivers]

about 2k hands... Actually, relatively to what i've done in the past, is "break even poker"... or so it feels... the wins don't come as much as i've seen... not a lot of "double up's" lately... just grinding poker it seems...

[4_2_it]

I wouldn't take too much stock in results over 2k hands. For example my 1st 2k hands in NL $200 I went on a 15+PTBB tear. After 9k hands I sit around 6PTBB. I didn't start sucking over the last two weeks, I just hit a heater followed by a bad run. After 50k+ if you are beating it for 9+ hen I think you are doing quite well and would say you should try moving up a level.

How many hands per hour?

[rikz]

If you still have this after 30K hands, then you should quit your day job!

I think you're running really good. Congratualations!

The FAQ has some more information on win rates. Also, PT BBs/100 seems to be the figure tossed around on this site more than BB/Hr.

[IbrakeFORrivers]

49 hands per hour (+/-)

That puts you in this range (from this thread in the FAQ):

"10.1 + PTBB : Okay junior, enough with the bullshit. With that sample size, we can't even tell if you're a winning player AT ALL. You need at least 500 posts to be considered a serious poker player. You might not even be worthy of existing yet ! Spread your non-sense lies elsewhere ! I'm notifying the moderator ! "

lol... i just read that... OK that's encouraging, b/c honestly, it feels to me like "Break even poker" relative to how successful iv've been... cool... it's a good boost to my patience tolerance...

[wiggs73]

Yeah, I'm at 18.5 PTBB/100 over my first 1500 hands. This obviously isn't sustainable, so it really should illustrate that 2k hands just isn't enough to know anything for sure.

I dread the downswing that is inevitably lurking...
