50K hands or 800 hours in limit will tell you if you are a winner but but not the rate.

For instance - I have a LOT of hands (400,000ish) and I know I'm a 2+BB/100 player. However in my last 40 hours of play I am in the -8BB/100 range. YUP?

Now if this streak hit me when I first started to play I would not have made it past 2000 hands before I payed CIV II but it didn't.

I have ALSO gone 10,000 hands at 6BB/100.

Poker is a VERY streaky game and you really do need a LOT ot time just to know you can win and even then you will always wonder. I know I've been wondering and I have played online for 8 years!
