View Full Version : Greektown I lost 32 BB's in 2 hours.

Greektown 5-10 a tight passive table (twice I saw limping with KK, two different people.)


I just got back and lost the most money I ever have in the quickest amount of time ever. In 2 hours I had KK three times and it lost to AA flopping a set once (I folded the turn when raised) and two baby straights. I even won about three pots, but I still dropped $320 in two hours.

Can anyone beat this amount/time ratio?

I only brought 40 BB with me, so I had to leave.

If my standard deviation is 10 BB/hour than isn't the chance of this occuring highly improbable?

I think they're starting to figure me out, as I go quite often. There was about 4 or 5 regulars at the table and they would check/call with flopped sets and trips taking advantage of my aggressive betting. I lost to flopped trip 5's three times. I got out as soon as it was raised (always on the turn) as they never raise me unless they have a monster. They kept showing me their monsters, so I was losing perhaps the least amount possible.

I still saw guy's playing any ace in MP, but they're not calling to the river with bottom pair anymore. I think they are evolving, but yet they're still so damn passive! Or maybe I was just unlucky today. Or maybe all the fish have gravitated to the 50/100 NL. /images/graemlins/mad.gif


The whole session was anathema to me. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

I knew it! I set the record.

No one has ever lost 32 BB's in 2 hours in a live limit game before. Please, someone say they can beat my record.

i dropped 50BBs in a 10/20 game with passive players a few months ago. i think it happened over the course of around 2 or 3 hours.

I played $5-10 at Grand Victoria one Friday evening, won 35 BB in about two hours and went to eat. When I returned, they sat me at a different table and I lost 32 BB in an hour and a half. That was a monster swing. It isn't hard to do if you make a few really nice second best hands.

I netted two losses of $700 or more in eight hour sessions in that game. I'm sure I lost 32 BB in two hours at some point. You'll see worse someday.

my friend lost more than 280 in a 1-3 NL200 game recently.

just wanted to throw in a nod/condolences about the greektown 5/10 passives. good lord. i played the game a couple months ago for a few nights and i remember the air of disdain that floated around the table everytime i raised, and then how funny all the regulars thought it was when i wouldn't go on to win the pot. one of them even took to calling me "pistol pete" after awhile.

you can suddenly drop a bunch of money betting into monsters (sets, or what i found a lot, slowplayed overpairs) but i'm not sure i would give them credit for "figuring you out" when that happens. more so, i think you might've forget who you were up against with those yokels /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Dropped 20 BB in less than two hours at Caesar's In $3-6 tonight. Nothing worth writing home to Mom about. Just part of the game.

But I lost 32 BB! 20 BB is unremarkable. I wouldn't make a post whining like a little bitch about that! The key number here is 32, man.

32!!!

That's my record @ Binions and the Nugget. Brutal.

Lost almost 75BB.

Won it all back on 2 hands of NLHE.

40 BB in a live 10/20 game in 45 minutes.

Happy?
