Re: My downswing is officially over!
My graph at the 55s looks almost exactly like that, except I went negative for a while. Finally pulled out ahead yesterday as well.
Maybe party and skins have flipped the switch so noobs start losing again. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
Without posts like this, I would've given up SNGs and possibly poker.
I don't play professionally (I have a 9 to 5 office job), but I refuse to play if I'm a losing player. During my first 100+ game downswing, I was bummed out and I could barely get myself to play. I just wasn't finding losing fun. I had people evaluate my play, and they convinced me to stick with it. Since then, I've had ups and downs, but more ups then downs. I recently got off a heater, and seem to be in another downswing. Now I have a different attitude towards running poorly... I just want to keep playing so that I can start running well again and get back to taking suckers' money. Stay positive. Keep with it. Constantly try to improve your play. |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
Good to hear. I've been frustrated over my last 150-200 games because I've been treading around the same level, but it could be much worse.
Congrats |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
I'm on a downswing at the moment, over around 250 sngs. I'm hoping that by playing 80 sngs a day that it'll be over within a few days. What's funny is I only neeeded a few EV days to get me to the $55s for good. Didn't plan on spending any more than 5 days at the $22s.
A downswing isn't something you need as you start playing 80 sngs instead of the usual 10. |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
Well, hardly anyone knows my screenames, most of the guys I've been HU against have had no idea, and I haven't made it HU often enough to randomly come up against a 2+2er [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: My downswing is officially over!
Congratulations! I just got over a bit of a nasty one myself. It's definitely a relief to start winning the coinflips again and get my pushes called with less than pocket aces.

Re: My downswing is officially over!
Damnit, stop passing on the curse. ITM 2 times out of 15 SnGs today, with six straight AA/KK cracked.
Have to bring my voodoo gear out, I guess. A chicken for a win seems like a fair trade. |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
nice!
i've been on a downswing ever since i switched to eurobet since no pp rakeback (tho now of course i've found out there is pp rakeback) but i won $160 last night in 10s and $40 the night before, so now i'm back up again...the downswing lasted maybe 150 sngs...which is a lot for someone who only plays some evenings after work...but the heater (even if it ends now after just one day) makes it all worth the grind when u are playing even for a period |

Re: My downswing is officially over!
After seeing a couple graphs and hearing a couple stories like these, I honestly don't know why people keep saying that SNGs have the smallest variance.
These folks have obviously never played 25NL-100NL. |
