I have been trying to estimate accurate live winrates in $/hr these for some time over various stakes.

Not sure if these are totally accurate but have extrapolated from my own live experience, discussions with friends in the poker world and through various poker media.

I know the standard like 2 years ago used to be 10bbs/hr for live, but even live games have gotten a little tougher, so 7bbs/hr seems more realistic today.

and you have to adjust these figures obv depending on an individual casino's rake/time charge.


1-2 NL $100 max - $10/hr

1-2 NL $200 max - $15/hr

2-5 NL - $35/hr

5-10 NL - $65/hr (Bart Hanson+Limon estimate for the Commerce in LA)

10-20 NL - $100/hr


good?

seems about right... i'm at $30/hr for the year at 1-2 / 5-10 and ur numbers look about right...

although my results are kinda skewed by the random -5k sessions i'll have at 2/5

Looks pretty good based on my liimted experience. My understanding is that $20/hour at 1/2 is a very reasonable winrate, but I don't have the data to back that up. I think there are some good threads on this in the B&M forum too.

1/2 anywhere from $15-$25

2/5 and 5/5 anywhere from $25-$45

people say they have bigger winrates all the time but over an extended period of time that's usually the range in which u will fall
