3 BB/100 is probably the max that the very best of the best can maintain over time multitabling in my opinion in any limit 1-2 and above. Perhaps I am wrong but I don't think so. If a person was single tabling and be extremely selective perhaps this number might be able to get a little higher but not much.

Making a bad call with a good hand at the river is a small mistake, folding the best hand at the river is a disaster.

With good table selection I do believe that 4BB/100 is posible at 2/4 and down.

My Poker Tracker, over 30k hands from .5/1 to 2/4, has the average player at -3.12BB/100. Average VP$IP =29.5. 40.32% of players are winners. I feel pretty good about my +1.5/100BB after looking at that.

1BB/100 is good 2BB/100 is really beating the game. 6k of hands isnt much. When I was playing 3/6-6max my winrate fluxuated a lot untill I hit about 50k of hands. Then one big lose or big win didnt effect the winrate as much.

3.5 bb/100 at 15/30 FR and higher over a ton of hands. hero plays a solid game, exercises good table and seat selection, and knows how to fold (claims this is the difference between 2.5 and 3.5 bb/100).

I just read this guys blog from the beginning and while he seems like a very solid player I still will say that that number of 3.5 BB/100 multitabling is nigh impossible to sustain. On July 22 he says he has ca. 100K hands at a 1.1-1.25 BB/100 win rate. You don't go from that time until the present and have a 3.5 BB/100 win rate in total. Perhaps over the last several thousand hands but even with very careful table and seat selection (both of which might cost you in overall earn from being less selective) that is just a staggering number to maintain. He goes for nearly 3 months at nearly the same amount of total dollars won. When he hits another similar stretch that recent 3.5 will also flatten out considerably. If there is any person on the face of the planet that can maintain a 3.5 BB/100 over 100K hands then I just have to bow down because that would be some serious asswhipping on a scale which I just can't fathom.

these are my stats for 6max $1/$2 at PokerStars

26,543 hands played.

VP$IP: 36.18
VP$SB: 63.97
W$WSF: 40.49
WtoSD: 31.53
W$SD: 48.54
PFraise: 12.66

and my BB/100 hands is : 4.23

are you people saying that a BB/100 hands over 4 is not sustainable over a long period of time? granted its only 26,543 hands...which is small but still i think its statistically significant to demonstrate that BB/100 hands at 4 or above 4 isn't "impossible".... I thought people on this forum like Kuso and Xaston would have BB/100 hands in the high 5.0's...

i mean its not to say its easy having this win rate, i studied a lot of poker the past few years and have learned a lot from going bust from time to time during my "online career" and studying this forum. I average about 5 hours a week playing (still in college, play only when i have time to make some extra money). and this is all only single-tabling...i guess multi-tabling is a different story.

but it seems to me lately my win rate has been fluctuating close to 4.00 for the past few months. although right now i'm in the midst of my biggest and longest losing streak (-100 BB over 2 weeks so far...sigh, and its really hurtin' th ebankroll since i cashed out a bunch to pay off christmas/new years gifts) and my win rate is still above 4.0/BB per 100 hands

the only thing about my stats that bothers me is my W$SD, i seem to be having a hard time getting this above 50%....weird....
