Hello all,

when you say "beat the game", does it mean you should be profitable after
10'000 or 20'000 hands at the same level?

Or is there a specific "level" of profitability to attain, like initial bankroll
100$, bankroll after 20'000 hands 1500$?

Thanks for the clarification.

Florian

 "beating the game" really just means maintaining a positive winrate over sustainable sample size. 10k-20k hands is enough to give you an idea of your winrate, but you wont know a truely sustainable winrate until you have 100k + hands logged.

FWIW, ive played just over 100k hands so far this year and my winrate still jumps around quite a bit with big winning/losing sesisons
