My personal best is only about 1100 hands per hour, but I'm not a
particularly fast player compared to some people I know.
We are talking about a single line machine here. Certainly, 1800 hands per
hour is easy on 3-play or higher, if you count all the hands.
I maintain that 1800 hands per hour on a single line machine, with strategic
accuracy, is impossible. Does anyone else claim they can play that fast?
From what I've seen, 1500 is close to an upper limit. And for 24 hours, I would
doubt that anyone could play 1400 accurately. Opinions?

I don't have the bankroll to play $25 machines so the need to stop
for multiple W2-Gs didn't cross my mind, so I admit that at that
denomination, it would be very difficult unless you had the whole
bank to yourself. But as far as whether 1800+ hands per hour is
possible, I know of 4 people (myself included) that can do it, and
admittedly, I know very few pros. So I am sure there are dozens of
others that can do it that I don't know. Granted, on uprights,
1600/hour is all I can muster for extended periods of time, but on
sufficiently fast slant-tops 2000/hour is doable (but over a 24 hour
period that tends to average closer to 1800). As far as whether you
believe it or not, choose whichever makes you comfortable. But if
you feel like challenging yourself, I'm sure you could do it as well.

That's total crap and nonsense, and an obvious lie.
I know a few players who can play 1300-1400 hands per hour, out of
the
hundreds of pros out there. 1800 is out of the question, and that's
with no stops
for W2-Gs (or other breaks), which occur every 400 hands or less on
a $25
machine.
Realistically, on a $25 machine, even if you have an adjacent
machine or two
in reserve, 900 hands per hour would be pretty strong. And for 24
hours, it
would be very impressive. As for 1800, dream on!

1800+

and not even drinking at the machine (so you don't have to go to
the
bathroom). But if I can do it, that means plenty of others can as
well.
