Default Re: Ever do this during a \'down swing\' ???

There is no reason to suspect your will have an upswing.

There is no reason to suspect that your downswing will end anytime soon.

As we're all aware, the significance of your downswing will fade in time, but this will not be to a significant upswing in the near future. The expected result is that you will grind your way back out of the hole. The result is that hundreds of thousands of hands later (thousands of BB's later), you will have forgotten about this experience.

If you have the skill, bankroll, and risk tolerance to play in a higher game, you should have been playing there all along. If you made to choice not to move up before, and only think that has changed is you now have a smaller bankroll (and possibly less skill due to potential tilt) you definitely should not move up.

It's called chasing your losses. This is what gambling addicts do.
