I dont think that this can be a streak. Its impossible to lose 300$ at party 0.50/1 with good game selection and semi-ok poker skills. I play 4 tables all the time, and I have never lost more than 90BB, but seen more bad beats than ever in my poker career.
I think it's rather ideas like always capping JJ preflop in multiway pots, than an ominous "bad streak" that makes you lose...

Hi, Atropos.
I'm new here, so I may be pointing you to something you've seen already. But there's an excellent post by Clarkmeister that critiques the sort of thinking you're employing here. Not looking for an argument, as I agree that anyone who lost 300BB at Party 0.5/1 certainly should take a careful look at their game, just in case. But I think Clarkmeister makes some excellent points about how this sort of thing really can happen to good players (FWIW my own worst streak so far was -180BB at Party 3/6; I've only played about 55000 hands over the last 6 months).
Here's the
post I'm talking about.
