To do better than that isn't impossible but it requires a VERY disciplined player and the winrate will play out over a significant amount of time. And 'decent' winrates mean a few Pokertracker big blinds per 100 hands, which translates into probably 2 actual big blinds per hour or so. By the very brutal math of poker, if the best players are going to have decent winrates, and after the rake is taken out, probably over 90 percent of the people in the cardrooms have to be losing payers.

It's actually very hard to make a living playing live low stakes poker, no limit or limit. I say that as someone who, from the very start, kept records of his play in spiral bound notebooks (because I came over to poker from horse racing and did the same thing there), and later on my smartphone. Nor do they rarely know if their plays are +EV. And most live players don't keep good records. About their great plays that are monstrously +EV. In contrast, people make all sorts of grandiose claims about what they do in live games.

If you claim that some 'great' play you make, say, playing 62o from MP because you play in limpfests with bad players and can 'outplay' them postflop, tracking software can tell you, with the proper filters, whether that's really a 'winning' play. You can go on 2+2 and claim a 10ptBB/100 winrate, or whatever, but people can look you up and see whether the story checks out.Īnd it isn't just winrates. Pokertracker, and Tableratings, keep online players somewhat honest.

This is a bit of rant, but there's a lot of truth to it: In my experience the data you would get here would not be reliable. It's just that I thought there would be at least a few people who have done that and who would be willing to share their experiences with us.
