So you are saying you are going to average $10/hour at 3-6. I'll tell you right off you wont, because you won't. I barely average $10/hour at 5-10 at the local casino, and I'm a better player than you.

10 years ago $10/hr at $3-$6 was pretty easy to make. The rake is higher these days, but the players are enough weaker (at these levels) to offset that. I would expect a good player to make very similiar amounat at 3-6 and 5-10 as 3-6 is a good structure that promotes action and 5-10 is a horrible action and is only spread in out of the way places that don't know any better.

Woot! Somebody much better than me at poker seems to agree with me.

I thought it was pretty commonly accepted, even in a few 2p2 books that it is extremely tough to make over 1bb/hour in live, low limit games, and 1.5 is damn near impossible? I might be remembering things wrong, but with the rake and tips and stuff, making 7$/hour in 3/6 is a bitch, not because of the players quality of play, but becuase of tokes, rake etc. Very rarely do you get a table where you can consistently get 30+ hands an hour, unless its a table that you dont want to be at in the first place. I always just use 30 hands/hour in figuring my hourly rate. Playing low lhe for a living, is retarded imo (live), 99% of the time, games at 3 times the stakes arent hard to beat for a good clip.
