Default I am eternally running bad at stud (no content).

Dropped another 50 big bets at 2/4 over 100 hands. Brought it in 34 times, won 6 hands. Lost with two straights and a full house. Played well. Had extremely bad opponents. Stud not my game. Never run bad at NL hold 'em. Gonna go back to playing that now. Love you guys. Bye-bye.

It's probably because you are playing too lose. You need to be super tight at party 2/4

Never run bad at NL holdem? Must be great, if I never ran bad at NL Holdem I think I'd be buying out P diddy... but then again why would I, I could just play NL holdem.
On the other hand, 50 BB is nothing, today, at a stud table it took me 84 hands to finally win one.
I still think stud is better, more profitable and more fun.

Been there, done that. NL/PL HE are home for me and I always retreat there. Play some Stud/8 at a tight ante structure and just wait, it will come back.

NL HE can suck too ya’know.

GL, come back when you want an interesting game. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yea I definetly agree. The swings at NL HE is going to be huge. I've had a 400BB downswing in SSNLHE and a 500BB upswing over 6 hours last saturday, and I doubt it's that rare. I don't think I've ever heard had a one day swing that wild at any limit game.

Not to sound like a dick...but....

I laugh at your $200.


It does suck having big hands go down.


Last night some monkey called 2 cold on 3rd, a double on 4th from me showing AA with 2 4 A 6. He won.

The fact that you could lose 50 BB in just 100 hands is good though. Because it means you are getting action, and perhaps some lose raises. Just keep at it.

I play both stud and NLHE (and limit he as well), and enjoy 'em all. The 2-4 game at party is very beatable, and I don't think you do have to be that tight if you can limp. If you have to call a completion, then you should be tight. But variance in stud is higher because of the extra big bet round. I played 15 hours of 2-4 stud on my vacation. Broke even for 14. Won 75 BB in the other hour.

Right now, I'd blow the inmates of Cell Block D at San Quentin to only be down 50 BB's right now.
