How many hands? How many hands?

How many hands do I need to play to reach my natural plateau.

If I play 8000 hands at the same level, would this give an indication of what my game was like and also what aspects I need to improve.

I am working on the assumption that if I just played, with little studfy or review of my play then I would steadily be either and winning or lossing player.

Regards

you can start seeing the huge leaks at 10k, around 40-50k you will know if you are a decent winner/looser. But you need alot to know closer to the exacts.

8,000 isn't really close at all.

Times that number by 10 and you can start thinking about having a solid sample.

20-30k hands should be enough.

similar problem myself, I spent the first 10k hands playing terribly at 2nl , was breaking even, or even beginning to lose, coming on here and moaning,but as soon as I started playing properly,I started crushing( I hope), this has been for the last 8 or 9k hands, now I dont know whether to take the initial 10k hands into account or not.
It feels like Im ready to move up but Ive read so many warnings here that 8 or 9k isnt nearly enough so Im gonna have to sit it out another 20k hands to make sure.
