5 is generally a solid bb/100

3 is solid 5 is more like a heater

5+ is decent

2-4bb/100 i think is a good large sample goal

The only hands a nit balances in his range are the nuts, the second nuts, and the third nuts.

OMFG....u guys are confusing the fuck outta me...lol...I've played 4664 hands and my BB/100 is 11.40....i 12 table nl2 ....is this high...should this be expected at nl2 and not at higher levels?...what should a goal be? I'm really confused cuz it should be higher than this...but some donk took 3 bi's from me by shoving all in every hand and running like god.....kkvsq6...AJ vs AQ (only time he had a good hand was against me) ...and AJvs J5....lost all of those...solid...so that chart should be moved up 10 bucks ish....if it wasnt for me lifetilting and running bad against that guy....just curious....

god damn it you guys are fishes

first off, there are two different ways of expressing winrate that people are not being clear about.

Your winrate is always expressed in big blinds, but there are two different ways of saying how many big blinds per 100 you're winning. 1bb/100 would be winning one big blind per 100 hands. 1BB/100 would be winning TWO big blinds per 100 hands. Its important to remember these abbreviations mean very different winrates.

So anyways, what I've found to be commonly accepted as a good, sustainable winrate is 3-5BB/100 (or 6-10bb/100).

Personally, I always try to sustain a ~3BB/100 (or 6bb/100) winrate for a 20k+ sample before I move up in limits.

If you do some quick math, you'll see that 5BB/100 (or 10bb/100) means you are winning about 1buyin per 1000 hands. 2.5BB/100 (or 5bb/100) is half a buyin per 1000 hands. I like to keep this in mind as a good or reasonable amount of winnings when I look at my graph and see a big downswing

Your winrate is huge and ridiculous, but its to be expected at nl2 when everyone is really terrible plus you're usually playing "deep" (which means you have more than 100big blinds in your stacks). Also, your sample is very small and its possible you just picked up a bunch of good hands and ran into lower parts of your opponents' ranges everytime.

plus the sample is small


/oh u said it

i wish i could sustain my winrate on nl5 :D


Liofle   Bulgaria. Feb 21 2009 19:40. Posts 274

what is the logic behind 1BB/100 meaning actually 2BB? Like saying "fuck you" and meaning "glad u r here"... this makes no sense to me at the moment .


terrybunny19240   United States. Feb 21 2009 19:44. Posts 13829

I think its some old thing from pokertracker and limit poker, BB is a Big Bet which is 2times the big blind

dunno

I like describing my winrates in BB more because its Bigger and Badder tho

1BB is 2bb not 2BB lol what would be the point of saying 1BB then? come on

just play the best you can who gives a shit about winrate anyway,it's not like anyone tries to have a small/smaller winrate

new shit has come to light... a-and... shit! man... 

attik34   United States. Feb 22 2009 02:19. Posts 92

All noted....I know noone tries to have a small winrate...but im just wanting ot know where im at and if i need to reevaluate what i'm doing...like i said...mine should be higher than 11...but thats also not something taht can really be said in poker...I'm gonna go for a bigger sample...and then see what u all think...:D
