What win rate do you need to beat stars 5% rake? (I know it is not this on all stakes but just using 5% for ease)
Would I be right in thinking that 0.5bb/100 would be break even?
does bb/100 in HM2 included rake?

I dont know why would you care about this?
My advice just play as good as you can and dont care about rake or win rate.

I m not sure how you should calulate this but for example if you win 100 $ then pot most of the time is 200 $ so rake is10 $ so you win 90 so looks like you need 1bb/100 hand but its not that simple because if you play MW pot it effect your win rate less or if you get fold pre rake is 0

I know you shouldn't focus on this and should defo work on improving play. But I dont understand why you would not care. If you not beating rake in the long run whats the point in playing on the site? If you not beating rake you are basically just donating money to stars.

Its not really an issue for me now at 5nl and 10nl but it was more in regards to moving up to the higher stakes where edges are much smaller.

Bb/100 includes rake, does not include rakeback. When HeM shows you are in black numbers it means you beat the rake.
