1/2 NL winrates?
I searched for this, but don't see anything anywhere on expected winrate at live 1/2NL even though I'm sure it's been debated before. I've pretty much stopped playing online due to the difficulty of moving $ around and the death of bonuses. Would $15 per hour after accounting for rake, tips, etc be a reasonable target for 1/2NL or is that abit too high? I've never played live, but there are a couple casinos nearby that I'd like to try out if it's worth my while.

Re: 1/2 NL winrates?
What is the min, max, and average buyin of the game at the casinos near you? This will have a big impact on your winrate.
Before seeing those numbers, I can say that $15/hr should be attainable, what were your online winrates at various limits? This can also help in finding a target number for you. |

8bb/h is sustainable, but you need to be the best player at the table and play at a casino that doenst rake more than 4$ per pot and play pretty fast (at very least 40 hands / h)

We have alot of casinos in the city. Buy ins range from 200, 500 and even 1000 at one place. My NL experience is limited to a few thousand hands as I played pretty much limit online. I'm not interested in playing limit live as I understand it's pretty much dead at this point.

1000 buy in for 1/2 NL? I'm guessing that raises of $25-$40 preflop are common.

All things being equal, would one make more at 3/6 limit or 1/2NL?

If you've only played a few thousand hands then you need to worry about what is attainable for you and not what is attainable for the best players.
99,932 and counting |

I think you could make a very decent amount this deep. Seriously, I'm drooling a bit. |

Over the past approximately 90 hours I have sustained about $80/hr... I am still trying to figure out if the other players are just that bad, I am just that good, or I have been that lucky...I think it is a combo of all the above. Won 12 out of last 15 sessions. 1 loss I felt like throwing chips around and having fun so I got drunk and did just that, haha. Another loss I played awful (and laughed about it) after a big weekend with a tournament cash. The 3rd loss came from a huge pot where myself and the villain both back doored a flush, me with the second nuts, him with the nuts, neither put the other on the flush the way the hand was played. |
