Default Re: -11BB/100 last 900 6 max hands

[ QUOTE ]
i am at -11BB/100 my last 900 hands at $2/$4 6 max. I am fairly new to 6 max, and have had great success thus far. Is it possible to loose so much for almost 1K hands while still playing close to optimaly? my vp$ip is 35, fpr 15, wtsd 38 (cant flop [censored]), w$asd 43 (nothing holds up when i do make a hand) ive lost to so many gut shots and back door draws i feel like i want to puke.

Vpip is too high, as others have said. You were running hot, now you are not.
It should be down around 22-24 if you follow the starting hand charts in the HUSH forums. Note that playing more hands puts you in more marginal situations on average (and increases variance), which requires much better post flop/hand reading skills.
Play fewer tables if you are multi-tabling.
Use PT and replay all your losing hands with the pot odds pop-up there and see where you had odds to call or not.
Do a search for the 6max graph thread to see what kind of swings people go through..
