My general feel is that $100/hr is achievable by only the absolute best at this level. It feels like you have to be on your A game, paying attention, and not make too many mistakes (I always strive for that but we're all human).
Anyone have a decent sample at Commerce 5/10?
There's maybe a handful of players that actually reach $100/hr at 5/10. From coaches whose stats I, a stranger in the internet trust, the average expectation for an solid grinder is near $75/hr.

Also, I think $75/hr is sustainable long term at Commerce 5/5.
Kinda hard to judge a place when you're there as a tourist. If you only play Fri night, Sat night, and Sunday, you might be able to break $100/hr with aggressive table selection. Commerce 5/10 gets overrun with waves of Euros and if you're grinding full time, that means you're playing a lot more games with foreign and local grinders where you're racing to the zero much more than exploiting spewtards. The game's also capped at 150 bigs and there are no straddles so you're not as deep as other 5/10 games that often play 5/10/20. Props to you if you can crush at the rates you said, but from the locals with stats I actually trust, there's maybe 2 people that go above $100/hr in that game.
$75/hr in the 5/5 is ludicrous. The game's capped at $500 and the house takes $7 from every hand that gets to a river, $6 that sees a flop. I guarantee you no one makes $75/hr in that game & the teeny portion of all poker players that might have such a skill set do not browse 2+2 LLSNL.

That's mere fantasy.
