How long have you played break even poker?

[Zetack]

I've previously had either two or three (I don't remember off hand and haven't tried to look it up) 10 thousand hand runs of break even poker. The longest was either 11k or 11.5k hands (again, I'm too lazy too look it up for sure).

Right now I've hit 12.5k hands on my latest downswing and am still 86 BB's underwater. So I'm officially paving new ground on a personal record. (Fortunately for my sanity, I've had 400 bucks in bonus's over this stretch and when I get my December rakeback I think it will push me over my highwater mark in purely bankroll terms).

So what's the longest anybody's run in the red? I think I remember somebody saying 16k hands...can anybody top that?


Hey I know this info ain't improving anybody's game so ignore it if that's all that floats your boat, but c'mon somebody's got to have a really eye popping number. Lay it on us.

Of course if you aren't a winning player your losing streak may be untouchable...
