Lost ~$2,000 in a horrible streak of 33's and 55's, with roughly 75% of those being 33's. I estimate that the total buy-ins was in the neighborhood of 50-60 and this took place over about a month (sorry for all the qualifiers it was between April and May and the further it gets from then the more this is like a distant memory).

That was 4-tabling with a failed attempt at 8-tabling thrown in the middle of that (exacerbating the problem no doubt).

I have played over 4,000 SNG's to date and this was by far the worst stretch I have encountered.

In ~400 109's (8-tabling) my worst drop has been 24 buy-ins.
