JimmytheHat19 · #1 06-11-2007, 11:53 PM

I know this is prbly a very old question but I just want to know what you guys (experienced players and forum browsers) think that a good BB/100 is for 100NL FR?

I have heard various amounts but I cant seem to get a solid or serious answer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Anything above 1 is good..

Above 2 is above average

Above 3 is awesome

Above 4 sustained means you are one of the better players at 100NL IMO

ive made some adjustments to my play this month. after my rencent downswing im at 3ptbb. i was at 3.5. i think above 3 is pretty damn good. above 4 is very difficult and id say that you have to run a little better than average to keep it.

now, 3ptBB would actually be $6 bucks at 100NL, correct? when ppl refer to "bb/100" does that ALWAYS assume ptbb/100? cause in NL i always just figured that the BB stood for big blind rather than big bet????

is 20K hands a good sample size? If I am at 2.5ptbb/100 after 20K hands, can i expect those results for every 20K hand period?

You can't expect the same results over a 280975376974679 hand period. There are tons of variables which can alter your results.

-Your game changes drastically (theoretically you will get better, but getting worse is also an option)
-The game conditions change

But 20k hands is not enough to determine much. Plenty of people run terrible for 20k hands. Plenty of people run hot.

For May and June (so far...) Over the last 20k hands or so, I've increased my VPIP% and PFR% by 3 and 2, respectively, and am now winning at 5.5ptBB/100 for June. When the month is up I'm sure I will come back down to earth and level off around 3.5ptBB/100...

So if I'm a 14/6.5/3, my 5.78ptBB/100 after 29k hands is most definitely unsustainable? I'm running about +11ptBB/100 for the last 125 hours, but I guess I was just hoping that was my win rate progressing towards the mean, not just a lengthy heater.

Yes,

If you are just beginning, it is not sustainable.

Not sure what you mean by "just beginning" there...
