just hit my 2nd longest breakeven streak:
89 50+5
21% ITM
-34% ROI

It took another 212 games to breakeven. (301 game breakeven streak.)

unlike my other breakeven streak (above link), i wasnt that phased by it.

yes i was upset, but i wasnt worried. no ulcers, no doubting myself.

i guess it's like having a baby. the 1st one you're a train wreck. The ones that follow you take it in stride.

Hopefully, i'll think the same way if/when i have a breakeven streak that exceeds 1k games. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

Well, I'm in the middle of something at the $22's. I had a 18 OTM streak, but I was tired most of the time and it happened very.. easily or naturally or whatever. Don't play when you're tired. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Then the next day, I played another set. I busted out of one early, but on the other three tables (nearing the bubble) I had tripled up on one, doubled up on another, and >1000 at the third. Then Eurobet disconnected and I couldn't log on anymore. I thought it was pretty funny.

The last few days I played some more sets, and I'm not very succesful. I need to work on my game. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
