try negative 80 buyins at one point in 388 sngs, prob. the worst side of variance.

edit: damn one day, thats nuts. I had a -30 buyin day after like 72 sngs, but thats the worst Ive seen, this is at the 109s.

I could fix that weird variance of yours if you'd like... just ship 10k to my Empire account and we'll call it even where you're still on that horrible downswing. Deal? Geez, like I don't do enough nice things for you Don, come on now. Aren't I just too nice? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Nice to hear that it's finally turning around for you. About time right?

I voted for psychological. But probably the main thing is technical. At the 22s on Stars I'm running absolutely terrible. 7 tournies one 3rd, four 4ths, one 5th. I know the sample is small, but when that downswing sucks up a lot of your buy in it does something mentally to your game. And I'm not sure I'm playing my best game at that limit now. Oh well, back to the 11s. I'll get to the 22s someday. Can someone play 2000 11s in a month? That will make up for what I'm losing in expected wins if I were at the 22s lol.
