Default My worst downswing ever...

You think you guys have run bad?

This took place a few weeks ago. And you wonder why I've been playing $10 or $25nl 6max lately...

Your fold SB to steal is only 2% higher than your fold BB to steal? You really aren't taking into account the fact that the SB is more expensive to call raises from. Move that FSB to 18% and you might be a winner. And personally I think you are a little too loose in the BB. I would be looking for a number in the low teens. It's just hard to win with those numbers, you know?

Sponger you are too passive preflop. With a VIP of 81% you should be raising atleast 60% of the time and stealing 100% of the time.

This has got to be a joke, right? I don't think you are running bad. With a VPIP of 80, I think its impossible to be a winning player. The fish icon is a bad sign also.
Did you somehow photoshop this or something? You can't really think you are losing because of variance.
