What is your win rate, standard deviation, and hours booked for the year as a poker-room prop? I assume you do this for the health benefits, am I correct?

[/ QUOTE ]

Am doing this for a lot of different reasons. first, i get a nice pay check every two weeks which is nice if am running bad, i also get benefits, my credit improves and its easier to get a loan for a home, since the lender knows that money is coming in every month. and the stakes that i play I make between 1500-2000 a week.. on average.


note- i've only been a live prop for 6months and a online prop for 3yrs.

daddy - you skirted the answer. I don't want to know how much you win or the stakes, I want to know if your keeping accurate results and know your win rate (bets/hour), total number of hours played in the past six months, and your standard deviation. I'm talking statistics over here :-)

Am going to do my best to answer your question

as a movable prop
i was winning .25 bb a hr playing 20/40, winning 4bb a hr playing 200nl (blinds 2-5) and losing .5bb hr playing stud 8 or better.

silent prop (playing 500nl only)
winning 3.5bb hr
host (mixture of 500nl,20/40 and 40/80holdem)
500nl winning 5bb hr
20holdem winning 1.5bb a hr
40holdem winning 2bb a hr (not required to play the 40 game but if i see a couple of donkeys at the table then i jump in)


i use player bank which makes it easier for me to record my wins and loses of the day.Also after every session i record what games i played, how much i won or lost at whatever games I was playing.


note- as you notice being a host is the best possible job you can get. and my results show and prove that my win rate increase dramatically as well.

2+2 cannot do that as an official action, however if a user wants to start a thread then its 100% fine and dandy to post it here.

How high is the traffic on the online sites you prop for? And, if you know, how does the competition on those sites compare to big sites like FT stars or party?

as a movable prop i was approximately playing 2hrs of 20/40, 4hrs of 200nl and 2hrs of seven card stud.For a span of 2 and half months.

my swings playing 20 holdem were typically 500-700, for nl it was between 300-400 and for 7 card stud my swings were between 250-400

Daddy - sounds like you don't keep accurate results. I think a better answer to my original question would have been "I don't know my standard deviation, true win rate, or total hours played" - I would have accepted that without further prodding.
