... combine that with my low VPIP and that probably means I was playing weak-tight [/ QUOTE ] My PFR is higher than your VPIP. Not that this is the best play but playing weak tight in 6max is not profitable. And no fun! |

I have never had a downswing this bad ever 124BB. [/ QUOTE ] That's what you think until you hit the 200BB one. I'm told 300BB comes up once you've been playing long enough too... |

[/ QUOTE ] Ya something was definitely wrong yesterday, and I know the cards were running a little cold. Looking at my PT stats I had AK nine times, and did not ever catch a single pair with them. I lost a huge 25 BB pot with a set of nines to some donk catching a runner runner double gutshot straight. Things like that were not unusual. I think what happened is the bad cards had a huge effect on my play. I started playing weak-tight, and like you said that certainly is not profitable. So my game is gonna take some serious tweaking. I better to get on over to the HUSH forum. |

My first encounter with 3/6. I did a cashout near my peak here as a "paycheck" then went on a nice downswing. My bankroll was fairly damaged after that (120BB = $720) so I had to move back down to 2/4.

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
I just moved up to $1/2 at Party. I'm down 50BB in the first 4-5 days. I've never had so many TP's and two pairs cracked by rivered Flushes, gutshots straights, and runner-runner flushes.
Fortunately, I've almost reached a state of serenity a la Adsman, and I can at least not scare my family w/ my language! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Oh well, I was doing 5BB/100 at .5/1, I know I can do at least 3-4 at $1/2. Keep on keeping on! walkdoc |

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
My last 25,000 hands have been a mess of crazy, spiky nonsense.
Yesterday I dropped 90BB at 6max in 300 hands, only to end up at +60BB for the session. (Granted, the session was 1200 hands, but still...) |

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
Scotty my first 5k hands at 2/4 look almost exactly like that graph, except the peak isn't as high. Annoying, isn't it?

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
I just lost 105 bets in a 20 hour B$M session at 8/16. That is like 700 hands.

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
I had a 200BB one at 1/2 6max, and a 100BB one at 2/4 at the beginning of may .. the thing is, a good chunk of it is always from bad play, not variance, at least for us non-experts

Re: My first downswing(No Content)
yea I know everyone has experienced downswings. I agree with adsman that it is educational. It is a good test if you are psychologicly fit. I'm surprised I didn't throw something or beat some holes into my walls. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Nice graph scotty34 I like the little stickmen impaled on the spikes of variance. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |
