Take huge risks when you are in your 20’s. After that, reel it in a bit.

Do not count the jackpot drop in your calculations. The house returns 100% of the bad beat drop (you should verify this since Playground rules might be different from Las Vegas rules). If you make a high hand or win jackpot money, add that win into your session. Also, do not account for tips in your calculations since you will basically tip the same no matter the rake.

If ten muppets are playing at a ten-handed table and the dealer deals 30 hands per hour, then each muppet wins 3 hands per hour. The numbers are the same for 9 muppets, 9-handed, and 27 hands per hour. What is the average pot size in this game? I will assume it’s $90 for now. So you will be paying $9 rake, three times per hour, or $27/hour. You probably get $2/hour comps, so we’re at $25/hour.

In the words of one of Roy L. Fuchs imposters, ‘That’s too fucking high!’ I know players who used to smash $1/2 blind NL for $35/hour, and that was with about a $12/hour rake, but the games were easier back then. Your game is beatable, but unless you are smashing it, you will do better begging. I remember when the standard rake was $4 in LV. Then Caesars went to $5 and all the grinders moaned and complained and went somewhere else. Which made the games at Caesars the most profitable games in town; nothing but droolers.

I could advise you to get into a bigger game, but nothing I say here is going to stop you from playing that 200NL at Playground you degenerate sicko.
