Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

Its reading threads like these that make me feel so nervous. I lost 15k in a night at 5/10 once, have had maybe 2 50kish break even stretches, and prob 2-3 25-30k downswings at 5/10+ before. So nothing to even mention running that bad really. This is over 2 years of playing 2/4 - 10/20. I just know im due for some sick 100k+ b/e stretch or some bustoing downswing soon

Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

pretty sure i've had 2 80k downers at 10-20, although some of that is deep play so I wouldn't necessarily call it 40 buy ins.

Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

I've had ~80k and ~60k breakeven stretches at MSNL. The first one I was down an insane amount of buyins with overpairs in 3bet pots, like it must have been my biggest money loser. The second one instead of thinking "I run so insanely bad, this must end soon, etc." I was thinking "wow, there is no reason this bad run could not just repeat again right away with no upswong..gotta just ride it out".

Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

Maybe a 20k breakeven in the past year and a half over 250,000 hands. A couple of 8 or 10BI drops. 3-4 tabling all handedness

Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

i lost like 60k over 2/4-10/20 at the end of last year. I played tournaments over that span and all that other stuff so I don't truly know, but it was a pretty decent amount.

Nielsio,
re: CPUs

To nit this thread up even more, I'd like to point out that CPUs have memory inside them, and thus LegallyBlind very well could have pictures on his CPU. So your extremely nitty correction is not even correct.

Count me in as someone who's never had greater than a 10bi DS. Don't usually play more than 6 tables but play a lot of HU... continue god mode.

Re: Your biggest downswing at MSNL

I've had like three or four 25 buyins downswings in all my hands i played (about 900k). I don't like the word downswing by the way. Don't mistake running bad dowswings with playing bad downswings. I did have both.
