Well if he does 12 hours a day, that brings my estimate up to $207,612/year if he played 12 hours all 365 days. Hell he could play half the year and make over $100k. Again, this is all contingent on the fact that he can make 5 BB/100 hands at the 10c/25c tables (I'm currently making about 10 at the 5c/10c tables 6-tabling, so I don't think that's a big assumption). I've considered doing a similar thing only with 25c/50c tables and not even close to that many tables as a side job over the summer, where I've already got one pretty sweet job lined up (baseball umpire, pays $50/game that lasts 2 to 2 and a half hours, but they're all at night on weekdays, so if I can start to show a decent profit poker would definitely be a nice side job). Of course that's just my goal for the summer, I need to build my BR from the $400 it is now playing at 5c/10c tables to $2k profiting at 25c/50c. I don't even know if I'm good enough, but that's my goal. I figure by the same figures, if I can make 5 BB/100 hands and play 79 hands an hour, since 1 BB = $1, that's 5*.79 = $3.95 per table-hour. If I play 6 tables that's $23.70/hour, not bad at all for a second summer job. If I can work it up to 9 tables it turns into $35.50/hour. That's definitely enough to live on.
But back to reality for now I just need to work on my BR. I'd be curious to know the story behind this 24-tabler and if poker is actually his primary source of income.
