Default BBs per hour

I gather the standard is win one BB an hour -- anything more than that and I'm happy. I feel I should be doing better than that playing 2/4 or $25NL, but the bankroll hasn't fully caught up with my aspirations yet.

Default BB = Big Blind

In other words, if I'm playing 2/4 I should be making at least $4 an hour, for a rate of one big blind per hour.

I have a way bigger varience with my style of play. I can easily go up\down 10 BB's an hr. Is that normal? Of course this is playing 1 \2 and 2\4 Limit HE online.

Default Low-limit variance

I think so. In low-limit people are going to call when they shouldn't, and that means some devastating suck-outs every now and then. My variance tends to be a little less because I play so (too?) tight, but that also means I’m probably not winning as much as I should either.

Some days are alot more profitable than others, but with the big ups come big downs too. It's hard to deal with the swings involved. I don;t consider myself a loose player I am usually playing alot less hands than most people at the tables but at lower limits if I can take down one or two big pots an hour and not lose as many I'll definately see 10BB in an hour. Thats only $20 in a
1\2 game. I'm no pro and I get bad streaks too.
