This just shows what is possible and likely. It's an excel spreadsheet which simulates a graph over 100k hands based on your standard deviation and true winrate.

For a 3ptBB/100 winner with 70 ptBB/100 standard deviation, here is an example graph:

Comes from this thread:

BTW, the SD in that graph is really high. Most players are around 50 I think. But it's worth playing around with different stats to see what's possible.

I added a couple modifications to this related to annual income. All assumptions are in blue, with calculations in black. Pretty interesting to watch income variances as you refresh the chart.

To add to my post above...

ALSO, you can override the ptbb/hr, by simply replacing the forumla in the PTBB/100 cell with an actual number. I play a couple times a week in the cash games in LA, moral of the story the guys I see everytime I roll into the commerce aren't making millions... and are hardly making enough to do anything in LA....I guess I'll stay an investment banker.

pokertracker big blinds/100 hands.

it's just 2x the big blind because PT was designed with LHE in mind, thus they made the win rate in terms of Big BETS/100, and the big bet is 2x the big blind. (BB vs bb)

so to calculate my PT BBs / 100

would i divide [(BBs won/# hands)*100]/2

If BB is big blinds, then yes.
