Default Re: just want to say

Not much to say at all after 10k hands. I understand that starting a new limit while running bad can be very frustrating and can impact your confience a bit, but, if you have the roll and you know you are still playing solid poker, you should stick it out because the bad streak will eventually end. Running bad happens, no one is immuned to it if they play long enough. Going through something like this also prepares you psychologically for future occurrences of bad streaks and breakeven periods, which can last for a very long time (20k+ hands).

6-max is a completely diff. beast than full, and while my swings were of the extreme sort, swings like +50BB, -75BB, +120BB, -90BB within short amount of hands are to be expected and occur frequently in this game. You will have to get used to them, and the way you get used to them is by playing through them while still bringing forth your A game.
