Very curious what your global poker screen name is. I feel like I know most of the midstakes+ player pool
If you zoom into the 2022 graph, there is close to a 40 buyin downswing around the 250k hand mark, but it doesn't seem as large once you zoom out to the full year.
I play just 6-max but occasionally will start tables HU if it's not against a good reg. I do table select/bumhunt pretty aggressively, which helps me maintain a pretty high win rate (~10bb/100 for most of my poker pro career) and keep the variance low.
I don't feel like sharing my screen names but I play very low volume on Global. My favorite part of playing online is exploiting players with HUD and not having one on Global makes it less fun and also more challenging to multi-table effectively. I also time out preflop on Global way too often which tilts me a lot more than running bad.
