Longest breakeven/loosing stretch

Sabrazack · #1 06-16-2005, 07:07 PM

What is your longest breakeven/loosing stretch? This of course has alot to do with ROI so state that too if you can [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] The reason im asking is that i am now up to 300STT:s where i have run practically even (ROI 4-5% at the 10+1$). I know its stupid, but it would be comforting if others have gone through the same so i know its not due to a complete meltdown of my game.

That's the longest for me. But up until today, it was a losing streak, not a break-even streak.

I do consider myself a winning player... my ROI at the 22s was 20% over about 550 tournies.

P.S. - If I wasn't such a lazy donk, and got a rakeback deal, I would be up at the 33s!

210 breaking even isn't anything too bad, although dropping 30ish units in 50 sngs is [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Breakeven at my first and only 500 $33s. I think I remember raptor saying he broke even over 700-1000.

Biggest is around 100, but I've had 4 such stretches in about 900 tournaments. My overall ROI is not record breaking, but very solid.

Microbet... you could have told me your ROI was 40% at to 215s and I would have believed you.

Not sure why. I just respect your posts and correlate your play with them.

My longest (and pretty much only) breakeven streak is 500 Sng. All other big drops I have made up again very fast.

Longest streak without a 5 buyin drop is 300 SnG.

ive had 2 breakeven runs of 1k+. of course, ive had 2 runs of 20%+ roi over 1k, but whatever. variance is RIGGED. holla

You're very astute, unless you're yanking my chain. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I mean, thanks.

But, I'm strictly a work in progress.

Longest Losing/Breakeven Streak: 150 Games

i'm in my worst (and only downswing) at 50+5:

last 600 SnGs is -30 buy ins. i just cant win. i had a 20 game stretch of 50% ITM, but all 3rd thus still -10% ROI. Poker gods are humoring themselves...

all other times i've had a winning month at 50+5.
