Win Rate in O8b

lostinthought · #1 03-23-2005, 08:12 AM

We know what reasonable win rates are in limit he both live and online,

what about omaha 8b? Does anybody have any suggestions as what is reasonable from long term results?

thanks

I suppose you mean "limit holdem" when you say limit?

When you ask for win rates in Omaha/8, what are you asking?
bets per hour for long term computation. per centages of hands played vs percentages of hands won at showdown or without showdown?

To give an answer, we would need a little more definition to your question. Some of us are psychic (psychotic) at times playing Omaha/8, but we have a hard time reading between the line or reading your mind to know what you are looking for?

Seems like the two standard rates in lhe are

live - win/hr (generally 30 hands/hr)
online- win/100 hands

so I was hoping to get an idea of an O8b equivalent..?

I hope you were just being an ass red because it was pretty obvious (at least to me) what he was asking.

For limit hold em it is figured that you're a winner getting 1 to 1 1/2 BB/HR. The general consensus between omaha authors is that you can double that for LO8.

when I say limit, I just mean limit, but
most people recognize 'limit he' as limit hold em here.

thank you for your concise answer.

so if you see about 20 hands per / hour and you are saying 2 BB/hr live

that is equivalent to 6BB/100?
(for online rates)

it seems high .. ?
