1 to 2bb/100 sounds about right...

But honestly I can't see how you think playing professional makes you perfect, were all human we all make mistakes, we all try to play close to perfect as possible but the matter is we won’t 100% of the time...

Are you new to 6max? If you are I doubt you'll achieve 2bb/100 given the various adjustments from FR to 6max... and the fact 6max is a different beast all together...

can't figure to crush a game right out the gate...

Talking about winrates is a waste of time.

Winrate is only a function of the players at your tables and your relative position to them.

Their mistakes - your mistakes.

If player A, chose to play near perfect poker and only chose to sit at the worst tables, with great position he could make 15BB/100, consistently.

95% of his time would be spent looking for games though and he'd never be multitabling.

So how much of your game time are you willing to sacrifice?

If player B wins @ 1BB/100 but plays 8 tables at once, he only needs to play twice as much as player A to win more money.

But is player A 15x better?

I agree.

This is way too general IMO and you have them sorta right but you arent comlete.

The amount of money won is a function, f(cards, # of hands, position,opponent play, your play) You cant control how your opponents play or what cards you get but you can control how many hands you play, how you play and your position. Whether this winrate is in terms of hourly or per 100 hands is simply what number you put in the function for the number of hands. Winrate's themselves are only semi-usefull in terms of 100 hands, to compare yourself to the 'average' or norm and at least give yourself an idea of what you've done in the past.

I've been evaluating my play in terms of hourly winrate over the past few months as I don't mind running a lower bb/100 if I'm 5 tabling.

But, either way, you nor I have not answered the question asked. If you played perfect 'professional' poker and all that you could probably do damn near 2 bb/100 3 tabling with optimal table selection, seat selection, and play. But, if you could do that then why would you even be at 1/2 still? I would go even as far to say that 2 bb/100 is damn near impossible over a large sample at 6 max, but I've seen it done. What could be a good hourly rate then? I would say about 5 BB/hour at any limit is pretty optimal and yet hard to do.0

With a semi-decent amount of time 6 tabling 2/4, $25/hour is about where I stand.

I'd estimate between $10-$15/hour playing 6 tables of 1/2. The play is similar, though the rake is slightly harsher.
