Default I\'m moving down (LC)

Well....I just had my 1st 10 buyin downswing. Combination of bad beats tilt and shittty play. This feels really really horrible I'll see u guys again later. I think my roll is down to $1700 or so after today. I started playing weak tight as hell today and then lost about $500 more on bad beats. (overpair catching a set to beat my set, runner runner AK bluff to beat my 2 pair, donk pushing 66 and beating my AA, etc etc...) then I lost $200 with QQ to an obvious set 'cause I tilted.

In my year of gambling online this is by far the worst I've felt, but its not healthy for me to stay at 200NL right now.

I am nto sure why I am posting this but I guess there isin't really anyone I know that I feel like telling this to.

Based on the content of your posts and analysis, I suspect that you were probably a very small winner to break-evenish in the 200 NL game.

In this situation you are often going to have seemingly insane swings.

Take a week or two off and hit the 100 game with a fury and focus.

Send me a PM if you wanna talk.

Good luck man. I've been through that a number of times now. You'll get better at it. Good job moving down before you end up at a 10/20 table with your whole BR in play [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

I was there last week.. tilted/badbeated off 75% of my online BR down to like 700$, then it turned around and I've since more than doubled it again... had to take a little break and move down a bit though.

Work your bankroll back up to at least 4k, and re-evaluate your play before you move back up.
