Non-maths geeks - may be best to click the 'back' button now and find another thread to read... sorry for making your waste your time get this far.
I was wondering how easy it would be, in the absence of tracking software, to gauge what my win rate is and how good / bad / indifferent that is (particularly in respect of moving up levels / gauging how much I may be able to grow my bankroll at any given level).
I suppose the questions I need to pose are...
Is an assumption of 85 hands/hour sensible for 6-max? (not sure it's really adjustable for periods of being 4 or 5 handed unless you know a certain table was shorter-handed for almost all of the time you were sat?)
Is there any way of digging out summary data by table from the info Sky show (knowing that I have auto-top-up switched on as standard and tend to have a mix of anything from NL8-NL30 as opposed to playing solely one level)?
Does it seem a reasonable target to think that it would take roughly 4 hours of playing 6 tables to make 1 x BI profit, or is my maths a bit off in estimating this (based on an allowance that rake is accounted for before applying a 5bb/100 hand win rate)?
Not sure there is anything else that needs to be considered, but any help much appreciated.

It's nigh on impossible to keep track of an accurate bb/100 on Sky if you're playing different levels. I just used to take an average so if I had like 2 tables of 20NL, 4 tables of 30NL and 2 tables of 40NL, I'd just say I was 8tabling 30NL. I'd have no idea how to do it easily anyway, the only methods I could think of would be a nightmare and would end up being a huge waste of your time.
If your winrate is 5bb/100 then you need to play 2000 hands to make 1 BI. so yeah 4hours of 6tabling is about right.
Anyone who has scoped him will delight in the irony.
