This is going to vary wildly depending on unit size, hours of play, type of game, risk, and if it's just counting used or additional advanced techniques.
But I'd say that for most folks, a long run of 1-2 units per hour on average seems typical as a baseline. It's probably not something you can get rich doing, but it's not too bad for extra scratch, especially if it's enjoyable.

"johndoe" is correct.
It is easy to be seduced by the notion of making lots of money; but the reality is that the only survivors are those who grind out some modest tax-free earnings.
I would say that, on balance, you are generally looking at $25 to $50 per hour.
Peeps online are quick to attack me for bursting their bubbles, but that is the truth.
Attempts to earn "big bucks" will just short-circuit your longevity in time.

Do you go in with a set amount and if you lose you leave. Do you have a set amount if you win, leave once you hit it. I am honestly looking to make $1,000 a month. Willl you tap yur bankroll to make wat you aimed for that night? What about units? It seems like at the big places Green wont get you noticed were at locals it will. So you have to play red. Is this acceptable or do you always stay with the same base bet. What if your playing or 2 hours and havent won ****, do you leave? Were would I find a place to see other count systems, I only know of 1, Hi-low. I guess 25 to $50 an hour is better than working for some dumbass. Are there set ways to play as far as bankroll, or is it a personal choice? Is it priftable to always play alone or do you sometimes do team play?

With the proper skills, and the proper bankroll you can make a heck of a lot more than $25-$50 an hour while playing..
However, someone with a $5,000 bankroll would be hard pressed to earn even $25 an hour while playing.
Then you have to factor in the hundreds of hours you will need to spend practicing, expenses, ect, ect.

Putting your bankroll and unit size aside,
your win rate will change based on the game, rules, playing strategy, bet spread, number of spots, your abilities, etc..
An average counters* hourly win rate, play all, I would estimate between 2 -3.5 units/hr (1 box).

What do you mean tax free earnings ? We had this discussions on this board earlier and everyone said they paid their taxes from the information that I gathered. Are you a tax cheats ?
