Cash game sustainability

#1 December 15th, 2020, 7:06 PM

Hey, so I recently moved to playing cash games from being a slight winner at sit & gos and mtts.
I have built my cash bankroll up from $20 to $122 in a month playing rush and cash.
(Gg pokers version of zoom)
This took me roughly 9.2k hands at the 5nl level.

Would this sample size of hands suggest I am at a decent level?
Or is 9k hands still an amount that could include luck and variance?

Thanks

This is very small! Serious analysis starts at 100,000 hands.

I think it's okay you go, if you go to plus, then it's okay. as soon as you play the bankroll, you will move to a larger limit and you will get more profit.

Variance depends on your play style, but for 6-max games a number of 100 would be considered typical. And then the standard variation after 10k hands is 10BB/100. So its still not really enough to estimate your winrate, but if its dubble digits, you are probably a winning player, you just dont know by how much.
