Default OT: Maybe it\'s all Just Luck

Planning to get pretty badly burned from the Flames [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img](and I deserve it)...But having just gone thru a (+)70 buyin upswing & a (-) 40 buyin downswing; my question is: "Is it all just Luck?" [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Could you explain what a +70 buy-in upswing is? Is that total profit - money invested * ROI? And there's a lot of luck ofcourse. I've started using SNG Tracker again so I don't have to put in all the results myself, and now I'm going to try to only look at them once a week. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

My roomate tells me everyday its all luck cause he consistently loses money with a good day here and there. He wont listen to me and try to get better at all. So you could call it all luck if your not good at poker.
