No, just for a secondary income and for fun.

It sucks. Im in the middle of one right now. I dropped 45 BB's in 160 hands last night. What pissed me off is that I went back through the my hands and found very few mistakes. I got pocket aces 4 times and pocket kings twice, won once with them. The rest wasnt much better

I'm also on a huge downswing, about the same size as yours. I actually prefer writing/reading about hold'em than playing it during these times, since logic never is interrupted by chance on paper. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Read, write, ensure you are playing well. Find a friend to rant to. It helps to have someone to joke around with.

Hi, I´m on my 4th or maybe 5th, it still isnt much fun, maybe I hit a 200BB downswing this time and will start caring less about the 100 ones..hope not though.

The only thing you can do really is just try play ur best.

I'm in the midst of a 160 BB downswing, and taking a few days off didn't seem to help matters. Things do eventually turn around.

yes. But before that, blah blah blah. I've had a -100 and a +150 swing in 12000 hands this month.

This is why having a 500BB bankroll online at all times makes me feel warm and snuggly. When I over-cash-out, it makes me feel significantly less safe.

Also, (and this doesn't count) at .5/1, I'm winning at 9.5BB/100 over my last 2500 hands while 8 tabling. Take that ChrisDad.
