For an earning level to be valid it probably has to be averaged over 5 years of full time play. The effect of variance in poker is extreme and players with a nice positive edge can still have ugly long-term downswings of 1 year or more, just as negative edge players can have long-term upswings of 1 year or more.

LOL at 6 millions hands to find your true WR. What type of std deviation does this need to get within .5PTBB/100 at a 95% CI. Like 2500PTBB/100?!?

for 100k the WR flucuates by like 2ptbb

to get it under .5ptbb its probably somewhere in the 250k to 500k hand range
