Default Re: What Qualifies As A Cold Streak For You?

Way too short term to even consider.

My defintion of a cold streak is playing even or a loss after three weeks - this translates into about 6500 hands online three tables at a time 2 hours a nite. This roughly correlates to five weeks in a B&M @ 30 hands an hour 8 hours a day five days a week.

I just came off one of these - it wasn't terrible I just played even for the whole time. There have been 100BB streaks in the past though.

Just goes to show the psychological strength you need to do this for a living at B&M....If you can't handle three weeks online playing 2 hours each one - imagine playing 8 hours a day for five weeks and making zippo or being down!!

I'm gonna cross post this last thought on Psych forum if interested in that discussion.
