wat?
If 15 BB down seems weird ...
1. You may not have played enough to experience losing 3-4 pots in a row, or
2. You're too passive and don't lose 3-4 BB when you lose a pot.
Your skill level is irrelevant for sessions under 20-30 hours in length because variance will dominate short-term wins.
You should absokutely be viewed as spewing chips all over the place. Raising not only AK - offsuit! - but jamming with flush draws and betting with as little as TPTK.
