Hey
I know its many grinders, and good players here on twoplustwo.
And I am realy curious how much money the good 2/4 players make a month?
Ofc i know its variance and so on, but just a indicator would be great =)

it greatly depends on a lot of factors (skill, # of tables, table selection, how many hours/hands are being put in, rakeback, etc). but if you want to know what is doable, then i would say it's normal to knock out $12-18k months for good players.

Dude use your head (imagination is a great thing), Work out how many hands you could possibly play and the bb/100 thats possible and bingo you have the figures.

Hint: A easy start would be to use the 100k hands a month at 5bb/100 positive winrate

I'll let you do the rest OP.

this varies so much but i would say playing good running good a top 2/4 player can run like 6pt/bb.

So 6X2X4= 48$/100hands

50k hands = 48$X500 = 24k

Wouldn't 6pt/bb make you "ultra elite", rather than "good"?

probably somewhere between the two, i wouldnt go as far as ultra elite, that sounds pretty hardcore.

ok i guess thats the word then. lets lower it to 4ptbb/100 and that would come to 16k/month at 50k hands.

If you made 6 for any reasonable amount of time, you would likely move up, so big enough samples at 2/4 are pretty rare.

someone who is good can make 4-5 for sure. im sure giggy would have a higher ptbb/100 if he didnt 10tbl but im sure hes more worried about his hourly.

There are limits above 2/4 my friend.

i remember 2 years ago people were saying making 5ptbb/100 = greatness at 2/4... i really don't think over 5ptbb/100 is possible these days. and realistically great players are prolly in between the 4 and 4.5 range over a 300k+ hand sample.

A good player can make way more than 5ptBB at 400NL easily.

I would be surprised if nanonoko, or bthere dont win for more than 6ptBB at 400NL.

Maybe Stars is softer than other rooms, maybe I ran hot but even I have more than 4ptBB lifetime. (Only 100k hands though, I'm a noob.)

I'm saddened at the lack of levelling.

The correct answer is:

ONE JILLION DOLLARS
