low profit!

[imported_machine]

my roi has been pretty bad last week or so, had one real bad swing middle of week but apart from that only getting 10% roi. just started reviewing my tourney summaries as i read this helps. Just cant get no luck. losing 80% of my 50/50 and just getting outdrawn alot and quite a few badbeats. you guys get weeks like this? do you just play through? or take a break?

*sigh*

Yes everyone runs bad from time to time.

only getting 10% roi.
losing 80% of my 50/50

Either you are really good or I really suck at this game. You should feel very good if this really is the case.

sorry re-worked the roi its more like 5% but that link was very useful ty

Bitching about running bad is lame.
Bitching about 'only' 10% ROI for a week is REALLY lame.

Call the wambulance...

My overall ROI over the last 800 games is 9%. You don't hear me crying about my $2K in profits.

I was CANING (http://beedubblyer.blogspot.com) the PokerRoom Sit & Gos, until a bad beat in a live home game put me on tilt for a full week.

The good cards disappeared, I was getting continually outdrawn, and I wasn't making much from those hands I did hit. It's the first time I've tried to play through a tilt, and - it just didn't work. I improved slightly after taking a 2-day break, but not enough, and I kept going back to continue my poor run.

The key seems to have been waiting for another live game - a tougher home game - and turning things round there. OK, so I got a bit lucky, but my play overall was much better, and it was definitely the change I needed...

If you are feeling bad about having a 10 % ROI in a week...

well I hope you never hit a bad run the likes of which I hit last month.

IT definitely fulfilled the definition of "IT."

If this upsets you this much I can't IMAGINE what you would do faced with a bad run like that.

Heh-heh -- I started to get riled up before I got it.

Of course, to be fair, this is since the beginning of SnG time for me, so it includes learning, adjusting to new levels, etc., so I don't put a lot of stock into the numbers.

As of July 1st, I'm going to wipe all my stats and start over.

If you are fan of Better Off Dead, you MUST see Napoleon Dynamite.

Must. Must. Must.

GOSH!

[dhende3]

You must be pretty ridiculous to be in the +ROI while losing 80% of your flips.
