Default Biggest downswing?

Haven't seen a post about this so far, so I ask:
What was your biggest downswing in terms of buy-ins?
I start the bidding with a 48.
(This is, of course, only interesting if you're a winning player in the corresponding limit.)

"aven't seen a post about this so far,"

There have been plenty, just try the seach.

Yeh 48 is large, but other guys here have experienced that and worse.

To the guy above who said he lost 61 a the $11s, are you sure you're profitable??

Why the difference do you think in your play at the 11s and the 33s?

32 at the $11s was my most in a 1000 tourney sample
I have never had more than 20 in close to 1000 $22 tourneys

My reasoning:
More loose calls at the 11s = more showdowns = more variance

I lost 30 buyins 2 days ago in 90 sngs in the $215s...I am not lucky. Biggest was 60ish over about 300 sngs.
