i can see nobody here answers this question seriously. i will. here is my poker tracker database that covers my hand historys since july of 2005. so i guess we are talking about 6 months of play. i wish my computer didnt crash over the summer that held all of my hand historys for the past 2 years. i think i had over a million hands logged before it crashed and i lost everything.

anyways, i play mostly 5/10 and 10/20 with a little bit of 15/30 mixed in. if i come home drunk and feel i HAVE to play, i will sometimes play 3/6 or 25nl.

oh yea, i ONLY play 6max games. also, ive made about $8,000 in rakeback since july too. so, with rakeback, figure i make ROUGHLY $54k online before taxes. i also play live games in AC and vegas too. also, the occasional home game. anyways, thats my honest answer, id love to see how others are doing!

i feel i play a better 6max game than full. also, from my experience, there are worse players there as i find that most people cant play as well short handed as they do at a full game. they either over value hands (for example calling down with A high every time), or under value and play too tight.

heres a line i have heard more than 1 bad player say: "Id rather play 6max then 10 person tables cause my chances of winning each pot is better. i only have 5 people to beat instead of 9". hahah, that statement is just absurd, but i find many bad players believe this.

i also find i get in more hands per hour at a 6max then a full, so i think thats better for rakeback as well. although, this isnt the reason i play 6max only.

I'm on track to make about 15k this year from casinowhoring, bonuswhoring, and small stakes poker. I only play very part time (I'm a law student). Nearly 4k of that 15k was from initial deposit bonus casino-whoring/ really positive variance playing blackjack/pontoon (clearing bonuses). 1k of that was a big cash I made in a live tourney in AC (1.1k). Some of it is also profits from the 1/2 nl game in AC when I when I went on vacation about 4 times this year. (Also about 1k). The rest is from $100 nl 6 max, bonuses, some 1/2-3/6 limit, and a poker game that I don't tell people about because it would kill the softness of the game.
