ive dropped 50+ 3 separate times at the 55s, 109s and 215s, and i did like 40 another time at the 55s. its no fun, but when u play a lot, u see it a lot. 15 is nothing, 20 is nothing, 30 is nothing. one very respected stter on this forum has dropped 70 in the 109s. i wont call him out unless he does, but that sucks. holla [/ QUOTE ] he was suprisingly jovial on aim most of the time |

Re: worst downswing, and at what level?
In the middle of my worst so far since started playing around 500 month for close to a year that is a 40x downswing at the 33's and yes it sucks. You start to doubt you ability and can't wait for it to end. Flushed my first bankroll during this streak had to redeposit which sucked too.

Re: worst downswing, and at what level?
Yep did both of those this month. (12 OOTM and 25 buy-in down swing) I've dropped 30 before, if you are playing that many i would expect at least a 10-15 buy in down swing per month.
I must emphasize, go through your game, look at your holes, odds are you aren't playing your best game. (especially while the streak is going) If need be, take a break. |

I am currently in the midst of a 20 buy-in downswing... This is at the 33's [/ QUOTE ] Me too! Someone is taking our dead money, off of the same table perhaps, for a mega heater! This is my worst so far at the 33s, and it really sucks, but if I look at it from the perspective that I've lost less than I made in one day last weekend (admittedly a megaheater), it's easier to take. And let's be honest, it's not the end of the world if you're playing at a stake at which you're comfortable. At the 22s I once dropped 32 buyins over 100 or so, IIRC. At the 11s the worst I ever had was -15 buyins, again IIRC. At the 6s I played like 5 and was OOTM on 1 I think. So 1. Edit: I said it really sucks, and I would like to amend that to say it sucks, but it's not the worst, it's just short term variance. |

Re: worst downswing, and at what level?
When this happens I filter in the run dates and look at my hand frequency and sort by times to try to tell my self it isd just a bad run of cards.
Right now I am on a wierd break even run...where I have finished in 3rd 27% of the freaking time but 1st and 2nd only 14% of the time combined. When I look at my hands my top 20 most frequent hands over the last 2500+ are (not surprisingly): J3o (2%) 43o T7o Q40 Jto 86o T5o Q6o 72o Qto A3o T8o K4o Q8o Q2o 87o 83o J4o 95o J2o (1.1%) It makes me feel better anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
