As others have said, it's possible to have this kind of downswing but it's not normal. Look at your play, post hands, try and figure out what's going on. It's possible it's just variance, but I'd be surprised if there wasn't something else going on. Make notes as you play about hands you aren't sure about, then look over them and post them if you still aren't sure. It's probably the best way to go.

And to unbreakable, I was better than that over my first 100 SNGs, and if you play long enough you'll be back to normal range. People run hot and people run cold. If you haven't had a negative ROI over 100 SNGs, just wait. I'll bet that it'll happen.

55 x .19 = 10.45
10.45 x 1000 = 10450
55 x -.1 = -5.5
-5.5 x 400 = 2200
10450 - 2200 = 8250
55 x 1400 = 77000
8250 / 77000 = .107

so yes, you stink to the tune of an 11% roi.

it's very possible you stink worse, or are better.

i'm locking this thread for its abject stupidity and lack of understanding of sample sizes, and on top of that, being a bad beat post.

you have 0 of 1 of each of those types of posts remaining.
