Too bad you aren't playing for £'s and euros.

No poker player makes the same as another. Tbh, why does it matter?

To work out how much YOU could earn, you need pokertracker (etc) to find out (over a VERY large sample) what you BB/hr is for a particular stake, then extrapolate that to how many hours you play a day, how many tables you play (and your winrate for each number of tables), how many days you play a week. With that type of info you can say things like:

"At 1/2NL if I play 7hrs a day, 5days a week I will (on average) earn $x a week"
"However, if I play 4 tables of 0.50/1NL and play 7hrs a day, 5days a week I will (on average) earn $y a week".

If you had all the data of all the pros, you could find out how much (and I stress this) ON AVERAGE they earn a week.

And that would be discounting any growth you make as a player. This comes up all the time when discussing winrates, but your first 100k or 200k hands is going to be way different (probably) than your next 100k or 200k hands unless you are a braindead robot.

just depends on hours played and how good you have a read on the game. probably 5-8 BB an hour for cash players or like 7-10% ROI for freezeout players. these are more low and midstakes kind of results. Highstakes has so much variance involved that it is kind of hard to say because in one week you could lose like 20 buyins or make 20 buyins depending on how you run
