*The Definitive Hourly Rate Thread*
 

Inspired by a similar thread in HSNL. Forgot about bb/100, multi-tabling... when it comes down to it, it's all about your hourly rate.

We have four different levels here in MSNL: $200, $400, $600, and $1000 NL.

Find the poll for the level you play at and submit your hourly rate!

Re: *The Definitive Hourly Rate Thread*
 

Hunh, I had the questions in order but for some reason it put $400 NL before $200 NL.

Re: *The Definitive Hourly Rate Thread*
 

I'm currently making ~$360/hr playing 3/6 over ~50K hands

At 2/4, I was making only ~$160/hr over about the same number of hands.

Don't play 1/2 or 5/10 enough to give a good answer.

Re: *The Definitive Hourly Rate Thread*
 

Wow that's quite a jump BJ from $4 to $6. Why the big difference?

Jim,

Do you play on party? Is it still easy to find tables with only 1-2 good TAGs and the rest fish at NL600? I play NL400 at party and I'm thinking of moving up.

I haven't had any problem finding fish at the $600s... maybe my table selection is just good, I dunno.

A couple hillarious hands from the party $600s today.

Bah, this converter is [censored], and there's no way I'm converting them all again. Figure out the pot sizes yourself.
