    Default How many hands per hour?

    At an average table or 10 players, about how many hands should I expect to see in an hour?

    Basically I want to get an rough idea how much i'm making an hour.. =)

    btw, if you can get this from pokertracker thats would work as well =)

    Thanks

    About 40-50, I'm thinking.

    i'd think it would be a lot more than that, more like 80-100, but i'm not sure =)

    thats 1 vote for 40-50

    Well, on a lazy night (where I don't have to dschoolwork :P), I can get in about 500-550 hands in about 4-5 hours double tabling.
    So that's 500/5 = 100: the number hands per hour
    100/2: the number of hands per table.

    So that's how I got 50.

    And just thinking about it, I'd say that a hand gets played about every minute? I mean, you have to take into account the big long hands where people think for a while.

    I'd say around 50 is right. I used to play the turbo tables at Prima where there were 120+ hands/hr.

    at Ultimate Bet full tables usually play at around 70 hands/hr, but I guess it varies from site to site

    Default Computer vs Human

    I'd agree with the 40-50 / hour on a computer.

    When playing in person it tends to go slower, especially with 10 person tables. The dealer sometimes isn't as good about keeping the betting going as a timer. Also in person everybody is wanting to get an advantage by reading the player. There's just not a lot to be gained by staring at a computer avatar. In person I would guess it's about 20-30 / hour.

    prima lists the hands/hour. they're mostly between 45-60.

    Yeah, ring games are usually 40-50, 6max is about 70 per hour.
