Re: How Do You Do At Online Poker?

the number of hands you win isn't the important thing - it is which hands you win.

As for the figures - if you are playing 50% of hands, its way too many. Even 29% is high-ish.

If it is 29% and you are winning 34%, then thats about what one would expect - 34% of 39% is around 10% - what you would expect at a 10 handed table.

If it is 50%, then you are seeing only half the flops. You are also only playing through (i.e. not folding) 8% of hands - and you're not going to win all of them. Even if you win 6%, then those 6% have to cover all your blinds, all the calls (blinds or more) you made to see those 50% of flops, all the bets you called before folding, and the remaining showdowns.
