Just looking at my poker tracker and it says 7.85 bbs/100 (blatant brag) in the 2 days for September. I assumed this was big blinds. However if I look at amount won which is $37.00 and number of hands all of which played at 10cents big blinds which is 2357, I calculate big blinds won per 100 hands to be $37/23.57/0.1 = 15.7 bbs/100(another blatant brag), which is double the PT reported figure. On closer inspection the bb/100 means big BETS(not blinds) per 100. This presumably refers to the size of the big bet in fixed limit and therefore the calculation is based on 20c big bet not 10cents big blind.
Does anybody know please which is the normally reported figure. So in earlier post when 7bb+/100 reported as crushing, at 10cents Big blind level NL level do you need to win 70c per 100 hands or $1.40 ?
Also wondering about peoples thoughts on the decision when (if ever) to leave a zoom table and immediately rejoin in order to "bank" your big stack. Yesterday I decided to do this whenever I increased my stack to over 200 big blinds ($20) My reasoning was I felt I have an edge against fish or most abc players on the tables but probably not against the regs, and it tends to be mostly the regs I will playing against with my increased stack. My reasoning as well if I feel I have an edge against regs as well shouldn"t I just be playing at higher stakes ? Clearly I will sometimes gain less out when I have monster v big hand but also will lose less when outplayed. What are peoples thoughts - am I just playing scared ?

It goes back to the days of limit poker - bb/100 = Big Bets/100, not Big Blinds/100..... and a Big Bet = 2x Big Blinds.

Many thanks for you your repsonse.
The guide seems to be saying that the figure should show big blinds per 100 for NL, but it seems to be showing the amount of big bets per 100 as if I was playing Limit. Have I found a glitch in my PT ? If I want the big blinds per 100 stat I guess I just look at my PT reported figure and double it. Wish I could do that with my profit !!

Just had a search round Google..... found the following quote from another forum....
PT2 and PT3 used the Limit BB/100
PT4 uses No-Limit bb/100
So, if you"re on PT2/3, then you"ll be using winrate of big bet/100, and on PT4, you"ll be using big blind/100 (apparently)
I just checked my HEM2 stats - and they use big blind/100

You"re a star. I"m still on PT3. I guess I know what to do with my first months profit - fork out on PT4 !!
