Re: When do you move down/what do you do?
 
I've seen you, and your stats at the tables, and try to avoid playing with you or others like you.

The downswing will pass.

Cut back on the tables and/or stakes until you "get your groove back"..(you know what I mean).

Once every couple of months when something similar happens to me, I play 1 table only of my regular game and 2 tables of the next limit down until it ends.

good luck

regards

Dude, I had a 200BB downswing at both 3/6 and 3/6 6max. I know you have run incredibly well up to this point so its probably harder for you, but this isn't that big a downswing. I feel like I go through these weekly at least, but thats also because Im not as good. Seeing as how this is your only income I imagine its scary, but just hang in there and you will make it back considering your stellar track record. You can bitch to me anytime if you get pissed off.

160bb is the worst downswing of your life? I hope not. Move down when you hit 3k.

swallow your pride and play some 3/6. it should help your confidence. i'd cut down on the # of tables as well for a while.

You think I should drop right now?

I think you're right about the tables. I began 6-tabling for a while because I was getting bored playing 4. The downswing started a few days after I started on 6. There might be a correlation.

I didn't feel rushed or ever time out, but I may have been rushing anyway.

There is no reason at all to drop down, 5/10 is just as soft as 3/6. I have notes on you as a solid player, so just cut down the number of tables and get your confidence back.

Maybe work on your table selection a little more.

Drop down when you have 300BB for the limit below. :/
