Good winrates for 100NL

pokerchap · #1 03-23-2007, 02:43 PM

I know this has been answered 100 times but I couldn't find it anywhere... What is a good winrate in terms of bb/100 hands... My PT says 14.94... is this solid? Also the bb on PT is big bets isn't it?

14.94ptbb/100 = running good, 7-8ptbb/100 is something that's sustainable over a large sample if you are very good.

15 bb/ 100 is very good. even 8 would be solid

15ptbb/100 is def. possible for very good players. However, those players are making good $ at 1000NL+

If you're >6 over a decent sample, you def. should move up.

I'm new to NL (but not L, where it would be stupid high) so for the more experienced players,
what's a ballpark figure for <font color="red"> "a decent sample"</font>?

Thanks.

I'd say you know if you are winning by 30k-50k hands.

To be close to your real winrate a decent sample would be 100k hands or more.

100k hands is a decent sample, and even thats a lil small probably. 8+ is a good winrate probably

The White Rabbit · #8 03-23-2007, 02:59 PM

at least 30k, but you should be able to recognize whether you've been running hot or not and adjust properly (be honest with yourself here).

K thanks for the replies.

I can go along with the 30K, that makes sense to me. I don't need winrate to the nearest quarter BB. I just need to know when I can start to put it around a BB or so.

100K sounds more like a limit figure, or a NL to the nearest X.x.

I'm curious how far out a winrate could be in say the 10-15K sample size. It takes me a dogs age to play 30K.

30k is still way shortterm, 100k would probably put you within MAYBE 1-2 BBs. Variance is huge in this game, Rotter used to say this about me, and know I'll say it about others.
