[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] I think Ed was referring to playing 3/6 in a live card room. [/ QUOTE ] No. [/ QUOTE ] Yes. Show me exactly where in his book he says otherwise. [/ QUOTE ] It wasn't Ed that said it. It was David S. And the full relevant language is: "On the internet you get to play more hands per hour. In fact, because you can play two or three games at once, you may get to play five times as many hands per hour as in a live game. Plus you don't have to tip. Making well over $50,000 per year playing $3-$6 hold 'em is now no big deal." How you can you believe that this is a reference to B&M poker? And if it was a reference to B&M poker, then a player playing 3/6 for 2000 hours per year (40 hrs week, 50 wks yr) would need to earn 4 BBs per hour, or somewhere on the order of 12 BB/100 before factoring in tips, and after accounting for the higher rake. ?????

Re: Quotation from \"Small Stakes Hold\'em\"
it is obviously ridiculous to think a live 3/6 player could make $50k a year.
4BB/hr ($24/hr at live 3/6) would be about 10BB/100 in most fast-ish live games (30-40 hds per hour perhaps) This wouldn't be possible no matter how bad your opponents were...especially considering the huge rake in live games as well as the general obligation to tip.
