I played my first actuall Cash game session today and I made a whooping $16 profit playing 1 table 25NL. I decided I would play 100 hands and quit the table if i was losing badly. What is a good BB won over 1,000 hands?

i guess 6 to 8 ptBB / 100 hands should be doable. the numbers will drop as you move up in limits.

1000 hands is a VERY small sample size and you shouldn't take stats over such a sample very seriously. You should probably have 10k hands at least before you really take a serious look.

I'd say 50K to 100K hands is a much better indicator of a win rate.
Although 10K will tell you whether or not you are a winning player at those stakes much of the time.
One big suck out could change your winrate by 1BB/100 at only 10K hands.
Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.
