Correct me if I am wrong, but over 240K hands you are winning 1 BB/100. That ain't bad by any means.

If I am reading your graph correctly, you have won about $17K in a game where the average player loses money to the house.

Keep things in perspective. There's no doubt that you have room for improvement (who doesn't?), so keep working at your game. But stay confident and, as long as you're playing for fun, play at a level where you are confident you are a winner. You will develop better that way and have more fun.

Just my thoughts. Good luck and keep at it.

I basically wouldn't have tried to tough it out as long as you did at 10/20 with only a 500 bet roll. It's not an easy game. I think you have done well to move down and rebuild. Keep plugging along.

roll was never that small.

If the start of your downswing corresponds to when you moved to 6 max maybe you just aren't very good at 6 max yet?
