I think climber's ideas may be correct...but it's hard to make oneself defend one's BB MORE when one is in a downswing.

I'm not sure I like the term "defending" one's blind. I think it ties people to the hand too much. I love opponents whose idea of defending blinds (or stealing them) is to spew at least 5 BBs with no pair and no draw. Yeah, that's a great way to try to save or win that 0.5 BB blind bet. Against these guys you can call pre-flop and then just toss your hand if you miss the flop. It feels weak but you won't win by playing back at them without the best hand, and when you do hit they pay off quite a bit.

MTTs with huge player pools is fun and there's nothing wrong with doing some of that on the side, but your plan for rebuilding should not be to hope to win the lottery in a MTT and make everything right.

Not much to add, but you should try to get out and play live if you can. If nothing else, it'll help restore some confidence when you get a good look at your opponents and realize just how clueless they really are.

Re: My losing streak wins!!
 

did you ever play higher than 3/6 on a regular basis? or is
this small limit play just cause your losing?

Re: My losing streak wins!!
 

i've played up to 15/30 (live and online)...did quite well actually during my stay in Vegas in July.

I'm playing down to 2/4 and 3/6 because I've been losing.

I know we have not always had a pleasant correspondance... but I really feel bad for you. I have been through a downswing half as bad in July, and I realise the feeling of hopelessness that can develope.

I really think you should consider the less tables option. I dropped a single table down to 3 at the beginning of the month. I have noticed that I am able to play longer sessions and stay focused for longer periods of time.

Looking at your stats the thing I would say is that an aggression rate of three is very high on the flop. It would be my guess you are not getting the value you should from some of your good hands, and also not giving yourself enough oppurtunity to draw out.
