Default Jumping. Who\'s with me? (ABSOLUTELY ZERO CONTENT)

So, after finishing 3rd twice and 4th 4 times in the last 6 sngs, I feel like jumping.

Please tell me it gets better than this. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I feel I'm doing fine, just getting unlucky infinite times.

Edit: How many of you guys were in the last $10+1 I just finished 4th in. Playing against people that are talking about stats are NOT NEEDED.

So you dropped 2 buyins + the vig and you want to jump off of something? You are going to need a thicker skin than that.

It gets better than this, but it also gets MUCH worse. You are going to get unlucky infinity * 50 times.

It gets much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much worse.

There is no good news except that you may or may not win some money along the way.

I had a 25 buy-in swing at the 33s last week. I knew I wasn't playing poorly as most of it was due to the negative effects of variance and short term bad luck. I made back all of it with my next session and have had an upswing since. Your case is nothing to stress over. You win one or two in a row and you're back in the game. Also playing multiple SNGs at once helps you cope with variance as the luck seems to even out all at once.

I'm not evening close to tilting. I'm just angry that I get down to 4 and keep busting out. Maybe I should think positive and say "At least I'm consistant" [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

I once finished OOTM infinity times in a row. However, I only got unlucky 6 times.

Be happy you cashed twice. I finished OOTM 6 times in a row yesterday and that hasnt even been the worst of it for me in my short time 2-tabling the 11s. I thought you were talking about jumping up in limits to the 22s or 33s in which case I'd be with ya, but if you are gonna jump off a bridge then l'm sorry, I'm too busy playin poker. :P
