the games are slightly tougher then some of the euro sites, to be honest FTP and Stars is quite equal in toughness.

you can still find fishy games for sure, just that there are more regs and they're generally more solid/less exploitable and defend their blinds better.

cake sites are softer too. Moved there from stars to make the learning curve less painful to the BR.

I got to thinking about the win rate deal of making 5 big bets per hundred hands. I figure in 1-2 NL Holdem at a casino, if you played 8hrs a day, seeing about 300 hands. That would give you 15 BB per 300 hands per day. 2100 hands a week, 8400 a month give or take a few, extreme example here. That would be a profit of $30 a day, $210 a week, and $840 a month. It seems that one couldn't make it on that game a lone, kinda like a hobby until ya moved up. I guess all I'm trying to say is that I thought maybe one could earn more money than that. I sometimes see players make 10 times what they bought in for. You think that it doesn't happen often though. Time will even it all out right? What is variance, does it relate here?

Also, what do you think as a guess to what someone like Daniel Negreanu or Tom Dwan's win rate would be if they played live 1-2 NL or 2-5NL. Assuming you didn't know them, just there skills is more what I'm referring to.
