Re: Can we really have it only ONE way?
No. It is conceivable that you could come off your downswing with an amazing rush. Or vice versa. But, what is most likely, which is what the other posters were referring to, is that you will slowly move back up, and, as your smaple size increases and your winnings pile up, the downswing will not be as huge as it seemed at the time, and will have no lasting effects on your bankroll.
They are saying, you are not 'due' for a huge rush. And, theoretically, a winning player's downswing could last forever (Though that is HIGHLY unlikely). The posters were using this argument to tell you why jumping limits to try to win back your downswing is a silly and bad idea.
Finally, when people tell 'Mr. Hotshot' that his rate cannot continue are not saying he is 'due' for a massive downsing in the near (or predictable) future. They are simply saying that he should not expect these results to continue. In some cases, they are also commenting on a player's style of play, saying that this play will not be winning in the long term.
