Re: Biggest downswing?

<font color="red">I didn't read the FAQ to see if this was discussed there or not first</font> 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.) [/ QUOTE ] FYP

My reasoning: More loose calls at the 11s = more showdowns = more variance [/ QUOTE ] Ure reasoning is wrong, the only way to have more variance with the same ROI and payout structure is with more first places.

Re: Biggest downswing?
41 buy-ins at the 33's over 152 games. Suck.

Re: Biggest downswing?
20 buy-ins at the 30...coincidentally at the same time as I tried to move up from the 20s to the 30s
 I guess that is relatively low but I've only been playing for like 4 months...lot of buy-ins to go...

[/ QUOTE ] Think of it this way: At the 22s you ahve more FE and you are more likely to slowly build your stack with no risk by having everyone fold to you whne you move in. At the 11s you are more likely to take more showdowns versus loose callers and build a stack more quickly. There is also a much higher risk you will bust out however.

Re: Biggest downswing?
I have seen discussions about variance, I have participated in discussions about variance, I have run simulations etc.
But that is the theory. When it comes to the true, hard practice I'd like to know what the 2+2-pros experienced in the real life. If you know a thread about it could you link it, please.

Re: Biggest downswing?
20 buy ins at the $55s in one day.
Next morning at the $33s I won 10, then lost 30 in the afternoon. That was fun.
