Default Poll: How well do you take big losing streaks...

Like how is your mental state after taking say.... a 100BB downswing or a 10+ buy in swing in NL or 15 buyins in SNGs

or anything close to that.

Just had one as well. I find when I hit a downswing like this it can be fun to go and mix things up by playing tourneys or dropping limits or even playing a different game altogether. It'll relax you a little and you'll be fresh in a day or two. Also, as I found out with my last downswing, playing tourneys can have the dual effect of making up for your downswing, especially if you win a MTT. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You know, you are one of those little bitches who talks a lot of [censored], but when it comes down to it you don't back it up. Let me guess, you make $50/hour playing online full time right? Just like 99% of the 2+2er's...

Once again I call bullshit. I might have a lot of beginners posts, but you have a lot of bullshit posts. Again, I say bring it to pokerstars if you are king. Someone like you should have no trouble taking me out right? Bitch.

I can't decide between voting for 1 or for 10.

There should be an option where I get to say "What losing streak?? Oh well, lets go kill people."

Again. Someone who laughs but hides in the corner when it comes down to it.

In the beginning they bothered me considerably, but now I'm at the point where the money itself is of no concern to me. Coupled with the understanding that variance is part of the game, my most recent downswing of 200BB when I moved up to 2/4 hardly phased me.

HAHA you're the one who setup your big "subigo vs the 2+2 gods" tourney on stars and then failed to register for it yourself.
