1/2 NL beatable? (foxwoods)
 

Ok so basically this kind of a similar post to my one earlier on 2/4 limit. Where i tried to find out if 2/4 limit was beatable with the crazy rake + tips. I found it wasnt beatable and i should play 4/8 which i am fine with.

But my next question is comes from my buddy, He says he has been beating 1/2 NL for awhile now, While I dont entirely doubt him i find it highly unlikely. The time charge there is 10 bucks an hour, You are looking at like 30 hands an hour (max). So with a winrate of 7PTBB/100 you are still losing 2 bucks every 3 hours to time charge. So from people here with a decent sample size is it like 2/4 limit and entirely unbeatable?

Or do i underestimate the donkness of people at Foxwoods

id say no doubt it is beatable, the players are horrendous, someone who plays it alot will prolly give u good details. Id also say closer to 20 hands an hour and a higher winrate than 7ptbb/100.

here's an article by Ed Miller that might be worth looking at.

after reading the article it seems that 17BBPT/100 is easily attainable which is shocking and refreshing.

why do players use internet terminology for brick and mortar? its not bb/100 hands but bb/hour

because bb per hour is so vague, some games u might get close to 40 an hour , and other games like NL and the split games u might get only 20.

What's your point? There are only so many hours in a day. I can only play one table at a time. If a holdem game gives me an hourly rate of $35/hr and a O8B game gives me a rate of $30/hr, do I care that my BB/100 is higher in O8B?
