down over 70k hands

[meow_meow]

just curious, do you mean "-700 excluding rake" as in you are actually down something like $5700, but 5000 of that is rake, because that is very different from being down 700 after the rake (i.e. being down 700 net).

Yeah, 17k hands and losing is not a good sign

That was 70k hands, NOT 17k...

No...I'm making just over 2k a month in rake so I'm still up about 1400 altogether for the month...but I don't like to count it because it's just free money I'm not actually making it 'playing' the game, so...without it I'm still down over a huge # of hands.

How do you play 70k hands in a month?

Anyway, if you're in the red after 70k hands you have leaks in your game. Sorry.

the biggest downswing i've seen a winning player take is about 18k hands. It's very common for players to go through 10k at even/slightly below, but that includes the rake.

You must not know very many winning players then. I'd say half of the players I know have had worse than 18k losing streaks.

ive had over a 20K losing streak at 2/4.

The answer to ur question is even easier when u consider the stakes that ur playing. Plug the leaks

[HoldEmKillah]

How did you plug the leaks? What methods did you use?

I know for sure of two very very very big winners on this forum who have endured 30k+ hand slides.
