Today I've broke all records. -170 BB at 5/10 ( 6 max) 4 tabling. Anyone beats me?

I understand a flame is most likely what I'll get here, but I have to ask as a newbie before I ask 2 years into it and get massively flamed.

Can I assume the BB in this post means "Big Bets" lost in a single day? I'm just curious because I purchased PokerTracker last week, and see the "BB / 100 Hands" statistic. I wanted to see what my worst day was, even though I've only got a measley 6 days logged so far.

Live 5/10 I've lost 600 in 10 hours. At 30 hands per hour, that's something like -20 bb/ 100 hands. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Live 1/2 blinds NLHE, I've lost $800 in a session lasting maybe 5 hours.

Live nlhe win (same stakes) max win 1400 in 10 hours.

5/10 max win 1040 in 8 hours.

Go into the preferences tab when you're looking at your stats, then set the filter by date to find the range that you're working with.

You should be quitting for the day if you reach 100BBs or so. Tilt will become a factor for 98% of us when it's going this bad.

I respectfully disagree

the other day I dropped 100BBs in just a couple of hours. the thing is, I was cycling through most of my tables a lot trying to find the fishies, never once had to rebuy, and never once checked PT or my cashiers balance. My gut was telling me that I was up for the day (a couple of the tables I had left open the entire time, and was up maybe 40-50BBs on those two).

when I closed up shop and went over to PT to review some things, I giggled a little when I saw my gigantic <font color="red">(WIN RATE)</font>

tilt is just a state of mind.

and if you can't handle it in the moment how are you going to handle it tomorrow when the month is almost over and your win rate for the month is now at .04bb/100, etc? it's just one big game after all

Hmmm... about 85BB in under two hours online single
table six handed (no limit hold'em). And I'd been
been running decent for almost a year on that site.

I mean I'd flop two pair, guy makes a big pot sized
bet on flop, and I'd push and guess what... he turns
over a bigger two pair... it was like that the whole
session... ouch... this is why you should stay in
school kids!

One day I lost 500BBs in 10 long HU matches.


Of course, it was at 0.02/0.04.

I do miss that $20 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

If you lost 250 playing 2/4 you can find out your BB lost by doing 250/4 (b/c 4 is the big bet).

Speaking of those numbers, that just happened to my last night. I lost both my flopped sets to higher boats. It wasn't runner runner 4 card straights and flushes it was higher boats. :'(

Search the HUSH forum for a 6max graph thread to get an idea of SH swings.

I once lost over a 100 BB's in less than 10 hours of B&amp;M play.

Awful day. It haunts me still.
