i was down 12 buyins over 10k hands once not that long ago. set over set, cold cards, a little tilt and the ass-end of the variance lottery. It was a good experience for me though. It prompted me to actually read Gambling Theory and Other Topics and think about fluctuations, variance, risk of ruin, standard deviation, etc etc. I always just paid lip service that [censored] but basically thought because I'd been winning for 150k hands or whatever I'd never run bad like that.

But, I think this post should go in Beats, Brags and Variance. I just felt like replying for some unknown reason.
