[Rush and Cash] Daily leaderboards

Sometimes I see rush people having played that many hands in their session. They 4 table like 24 hours or something I don't think they sleep.

I think 4-tabling rush gives you about 1K hands/hour?

I played 1 table rush for exactly 1 hour today, and it was 222 hands, ... so * 4 tables = 888 hands/hour. For some people it's doable.

It's doable for sure if you 4 table. Every hand you raise you get 3 points I think and every fold is 1, during happy hour (2 hours) it's doubled, I believe you can even get more higher scores if you play like 12h+ in a day, so I don't see anything weird about this personally.

Edit:
This is what I found: You get 1 point for folding, 3 for calling, 5 for betting/raising and 5 for taking insurance. Extra points for winning a hand at cash drop tables. Capped at 20 for a hand.

Not sure if this is up to date, but if it is, then then I'd even class that score as rather low compared to what it could be.

Doable definitely... those players play every second or third day... And if you are not complete nit you can get first places with less than 16h/day

To win a leaderboard (at least in PLO) it takes 4tabling 16-20h. Sometimes you get contested by another reg, sometimes you win it with fewer hours. The lower the stakes, the more leaderboard money is in buyins. And there are players who grind just for leaderboard win couple times a week. If you see same person winning leaderboard multiple days in row, then it's probably 100% shared account. Ever since leaderboards and rake races came, people have been using shared accounts to win them (it's not the same player playing 24h a day).

I have played few times for leaderboard win, it took 18-20h 4tabling.

Same here, got 2 wins at nl25 rush, once grinded 16h once 20 and something... It is doable, just not every day (and honestly not worth it at baby stakes as time invested is worth being invested into studying and actually moving up)

Well at lower stakes the leaderboard money is more in bb's, so if the plan is to build bankroll for moving up it's a good choice.
