longest winning streak?
 
a buddy says he just finished an astonishing streak - 29 straight profitable brick and mortar 10/20 winning sessions.

is it possible? what are the longest you've heard of?

i've had a 34 day period online playing 10/20 to 30/60 without having a losing day...haven't played every day though, and i've had losing sessions, but never lost on the day...i hate finals

What is his drawdown? If he takes in 1000, loses 999$ and then wins his way back to 1001, does he consider that a winning session? In reality, it's not.

very doable if you play NL small stakes and a low variance style. much harder to do in limit regardless of limits but anything is possible. Too me this seems doable against the typical socal lineup

Why not? Seems like a + session to me.

so? Show me a winrate, either per hand or per hour, and then i will be impressed. im pretty sure i could almost never have a losing session if i wanted to work it that way. Its not about winning pots, or having winning sessions, its about making money.

peace
