Default Re: Limit players - what\'s the worst BB loss in a day

dropped 50bb playing 5/10 yesterday when i shoulda been studying. not too bad but i was pissed off cause i should of been studying. instead, i lost $500, wasted 8 hours, and didn't study. now im fuked for midterms.

live play seems to produce sizeable swings as well. once i was up like 500 in 2 hours playing 8/16, i left DOWN 200.

another time i was up 300 playing 4/8, ended the session DOWN 200

85 is my worst. Unfortunately it happened at the highest limit I've ever played.

Lost 100BB in 600 hands the other day. It didn't end by me closing out the tables and shutting down the computer as much as it did me literally pulling the plug to the machine and going directly to bed amidst a flurry of profanities.

I've played 350 hands today and I'm down 48 BB's which is an appalling 13.7BB/100. Every decent hand is being sucked out on by 2 outters. I've won 3% of my hands. I quit for today.

Just wondering how bad it can get?

I was up 170bb at one point during a day and finished down over 50. So, a -220bb streak in one day. Yuck.

I was up 165 one day and finished down 55. I guess we tie, but you sort of win...eh [censored] it, we both lose.

I HATE days like that. I still dont handle that very well psychologically, id rather just lose all day, than be up HUGE and end up even or down.

Not sure how many BB's I've lost, but back in my days of being an idiot with no BR managment I sat in a 15/30 table with a whopping 350$, proceded to lose almost all of it, then win it all back in about 2 hands. Wow, this had no relevance to anything what so ever. Oh well.

Worst day? Over 200BB's.

Worst stretch? Dropped 100BB's in 100 hands. When reviewing the hands in PT, there was no hand I really overplayed, and to save BB's, I would have needed to make folds like top 2 or better for 1BB on the river - that sort of thing. I actually couldn't even find a starting hand where the flop was seen where I could have won had I chosen to play some goofy 72o or such.

Basically, it can get a lot worse.
