UK minimum is £6.19 or $10.04 per hour. Considering 70 hands per hour on each table, that would take 24-tabling with a win-rate of 12 bb/100.

I guess there is also the alternative to grind a crazy number of hours and defeat the minimum monthly wage. But really, if you can do this, it's hard to believe that you're incapable of finding a job that pays the minimum.

I was working on the basis of playing Zoom/Rush: 1200 hands per hour @15bb/100 plus $1/hour rakeback. There's no reason why an experienced player couldn't sustain this win rate from what I've seen in these games.

Indeed. The key to my point is if you needed to do it (e.g. short term whilst looking for another job) then you could get by and the money certainly shouldn't be disregarded. Also definitely worth considering if you are a student, as you could play whenever you wanted from the comfort of your student shithole, rather than doing a minimum wage job.
