ugh, just dropped about 15 buy ins since yesterday. At this rate I'll be right next to you guys. The problem is that I haven't hit a hot streak since I moved up to the 30s so its hard to keep my confidence up. At least I have another 15 buy ins to drop before i'm in the red on them

That nasty filthy ass flip-side to positive variance has arrived, like you all said it would.

Down ~50 Buy-Ins in a week.

I'm still waiting for my share of that positive varience everyone is always talking about.


Edit - i'm down 20ish over the past 2 days.

I must've stole your mojo, dude. By following your advice from the other day, I tore up the 33s tonight.

OTOH, maybe you just need to change your avatar to a hot chick - it worked for me.

Well guys, haha not to be the filthy, mean, dirty bastard that I'm being, but I've had the exact opposite lately. My first 102 $55s 8-tabling, my ITM is 46.1% with a 35.5% ROI!!! But at about SNG 44 I was recovering from a 10 buy-in downstreak, and during the rest of that period I had two 6 buy-in downswings- I know you guys all know this, but hang in there and soon enough you'll be banging lady luck from behind, doggy-style...

Just to give you an idea as to how well Jess is running, these are his stats to his last 10 SNGs at the 55s, stragiht from Aleo's spreadsheet:
Place Time
1 43
3 34
1 41
2 49
2 38
1 53
4 43
3 35
1 45
2 38

In his last ten SNGs, he had one OTM, and it was a 4th at that! To make matters worse, he got sucked out on that hand as well (AK v AQ). Jeez, if only I could run that good on my bankroll right now..... $1000 bucks in 10 sngs.... lucky fucker. I must reiterate. Lucky fucker.

Now Jess is asking whether he can quit his day job now... Wait. this is his day job.

(P.S. this happens with an ITM of 40% about 2-3 times in 10,000 for sets of 10)

I'm in the same boat as you - my last 7 hours of play (12-tabling a mix of the $27 Turbos and $60 Turbos at Stars):

Yesterday - 62 $27s; Today - 18 $27s, 12 $60s:

22 1st, 11 2nd, 13 3rd
ITM 46/92 = 50.0%
+$1489.50, 0.517 ROI

Is that maintainable?? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Perfect timing too, as I started a two month $10K Challenge last weekend for myself to put a down payment on a car, and I'm over 30% of the way there after five days. I usually play 10-15 hours a week, but I plan to kick it up a bit during this challenge.
