Confused on BB/100 hands issue.

[Oddchild]

I seem to be getting a bit confused on BB/100 hands. I read somewhere that what PokerTracker gives as your rate may not be what some people view as BB/100?!?
Then I read a post, where someone said this


the original poster wanted to use big blinds, so that's what i gave him his answers in. and by the way, when i played prima, i consistently (over at least 30K hands) beat the game for much more than 19big blinds/100 (9.5BB/100).

Can anyone help me a bit??

BB = Big Bets from limit poker...2x the big blind. For .25/.50 Party tables BB = $1

Therefore, I make either 10 BB/100 hands or 20 big blinds / 100 hands.

Poker tracker automatically uses BB (big bets)

So as I only play No Limit, would I be correct in thinking the two are the same?
ie at $100NL the Big Blind is $2 - there is no 'big bet'?

PT uses BB = 2xBig Blind for NL too. Rather silly as there obviously isn't such a thing as a Big Bet.

If you play NL100 at Party, where the Big Blind is $2 and you've earned $50 in 100 hands, your BB/100 in PT is 12,5

and the awesome thing is that nobody bothers to type 10 bets/100 or 10 blinds/100 despite the fact that nobody has any idea what you mean when you say 10 bb/100.
