I think you're easily rolled for $2 games. Personally, I'd probably play $5 ones with your bankroll, but I'm impatient.

I wish I could win that much per hour.

Your sample size is so small it's of very little or no value. Wait until you've played 10,000 or 20,000 hands.

i know.


Im currently compiling every session i have played into checkyoubets to find my true $/hr, ive played over 1 mill hands if you havn't seen my other thread already.


oh and this "sample size" does not include hands. it is literally my winnings per hour, as it is tournament wins/losses, but i still agree, there isnt enough tourneyments for it to have any value, as basically every tourney changes it dramatically.

i have come to realise poker is not for me...

i am making steady progress at sngs but it will take me years just to get my money back...

not worth it id rather just play for fun at a home game...

From my history, it shows that i just unload ALL my bankroll into cash games, backing me up i have undeniable proof that i have gotten my money in with the best of it every time i crash out.. but once its gone its gone... and the money statistics debunk any moans that i play good.

so heres me, throwing the towel in, for now at least... :P
