At this level, and your chip stack. And with only 2 more people to act behind you with the others folding... this is definately a push.

Results?

Yeah, it's good. You're in the CO, and your stack is getting awfully desperate. Any pp in this spot is fine. Even 22. Many would argue that you should push 84o in this spot.

Yeah I was just thinking that many people around here could make the argument for pushing almost any 2 in that position and the blinds/stack sizes.

Nice push. No other option in that spot. Fold is bad. Obviously any standard raise at this point is bad. limp is awful. Push, push, push.

It's funny I keep hoping I post a hand that people say "that is a bad push, you have a leak". But nope I am just running worse than anyone has ever thought possible. At the peak 41 BI drop and right now I am down 36 BI, I'm coming up to a 500 SnG period of losing. This is after 2500 with double digit ROI. The only part of my game that has changed is the amoutn of times I win a hand when i am ahead and a confli pfor me being a 90% underdog. If I am not a winner after this chunk of 1000 SnG's I will take a 1 week break and go back to 4 tabling th 3/6 limit game at least there I only get sucked out for bets and not stacks.

I thought SnG's had low variance, I guess only if you ahve good luck, huh?

Out.

Wrong. They have high variance. Just not as high as no-limit MTTs or ring games.

I was being srcastic although a 40 BI downswing is at least notable from what I have seen on this forum. I do want to thank you for being hard on me as I need the encouragment. I just read Fiery Justice's blog post where he talks about going 1000 $215's with a negative ROI and that has given me motivation. Also I saw that Zeejustin had a 40 BI drop during his 1000 215's challenege. So just for you Yugo, I will not mention my downswing again until it hits 60 BI or I ahve gone 1000 SnG's with a negative ROI. Please poker gods, quit rewarding the guys who are TRYING to give me their chips. Holler.

Out.

Sort of OT of your original post, have you ever considered playing only in prime hours when there are more "fish" online? Say 45,000+ players?

It could help your downswing and confidence until you get back on your feet. Just something else to consider...
