I think your giving up way too easy. $950 is still plenty for 25nl. you lost alot when you were 24 tabling. Just stick to 12-14 tables and table select better. You will start winning again.
You play like 16/10 right. you should play more 15/13 if your going to play that many hands. I play more like 12/9 but it works for me. 16/10 is too big a gap from vpip/pfr.
you want to be raising about 75% or more of the hands you play.

I pokerstoved it and you are 70% favorite vs his range of set of Aces, set of Queens, Aces and queens, AK, a flush draw.
So its just a cooler.

^^ sadly every big pot ive been in at 50nl so far ive lost all of these spots so i have to question it... like i will be up on my session grinding then 1 big pot & i lose everything ... just seen that nanonoko is down 25 buy ins in 1 session yesterday or the day before so i guess i see that even the greatest players arent immune,i just really want this doomswitch to stop though

Doesnt small stakes only cover through 25nl? you should have get the pro that covers all. You can always upgrade tho.

You uploaded all your hand histories that hopefully you were saving all along right?
Under reports is 1 way just hit the change that is top middle next to today, month, etc. filter and start typing in a player in your database and it will narrow it down and bring it up. Then you can view.

Just import all your hands and get the hud up and running. start small with 5 or 10 stats for awhile and you can add more as you get used to it. I have like 40 stats on my Hud(no abbreviations)

basics are:
vpip/pfr/steal/3b/fold to 3b/Aggresion Factor

small stakes covers from 2-100nl.. i dont think i will play higher than that so yea, and up to $22 tournaments

& yea i followed some config i found off of youtube which pretty much is what you just typed

1 thing though my 6max stats are all under the players but for full ring its all over the place, i have preferred seating on as well but its still all over the place for my full ring tables

You just right click on the hud box for each player and drag it to where you want it.

first session in multi tabling with it, down $0.90 after 2k hands,didnt flop but one set which i didnt get paid for ehh... gona continue to play 10nl before moving back up

btw parison after 51k hands it says ima 10/8 ... at 50nl im 13/8 ehh... how do you config the hud so that it helps you in reg vs reg wars in late positions?

If your in position vs raiser then you can use, Steal%, pfr(co,button), and fold to 3bet. If he raises alot and has high fold to 3bet% then you can 3b alot of hands.
If you are the one raising then you can use, call opening raise%(one of my favorites) and fold sb to steal%, fold bb to steal %.
On my hud in addtion to total pfr% i have a breakdown of EP raise, MP raise, CO, raise and button raise.

Keep in mind that some of those stats take a pretty good amount of hands for them to converge.

lost 6 buy ins today wow... how does someone lose every single all in for like 5days str8... this is the second time now ive had a long downswing stretch, first time was in may/early june where i got tilted and busted my roll.... this is so sick though man every fricking donk getting the best of me, the biggest pot i won was 50bb in 4k hands and i got stacked like 5x ehh so lame

sounds like a prty sick downswing.

Poker was like this for me when i first moved up to 50nl for like the first 30k hands or so... it was pretty damn brutal. Losing like AK vs AQ to same guy back to back

It will turn around sooner or later man don't worry. Just try not to spew and lose the minimum.

Seems like your making good plays and stuff still so keep ya head up! I was -18BI at one point but i really spewed minimal

can add me on MSN/AIM if you wana talk :P we can talk about psychological shiets. eventhough u play fullring i play 6max but phsychological stuff still the same!

last session of 10nl went up 5 buy ins, first run good in like a week now....still down $250 from last week though... but trying rebuild some confidence at 10nl before moving back up to 25nl or following through with my 50nl shot

finally got hem so hopefully that will help me improve my game & edge... i can 8 table with hem now & make good decisions, 24 tabling still out of my reach though , which is where iw ana be i guess ill keep increasing tables the more i get use to it...

im still planning on getting about 50k more hands at 25nl so i dont know about the badge anymore but man i just wana be in the top 50 is all, variance needs to leave my tables!!

Gl, downswings can be pretty brutal.
Try to not let it affect your play, I see you paying off some of your opponents in spots where you don't beat much. Even donkeys make hands you know.

for the people telling me to stop blaiming variance you have no clue about poker, i could careless if im new to the game but ive played more hands & put in more hrs than alot of people & thats a pretty dumb comment, whether you produce a winning session or losing session is primarly upon luck, if you dont get in good spots you cant win period and if you put in the money in flips and lose its luck related not skill, the skill with poker is maximizing value when you have the best of it and minimizing losses when you dont & over the long haul show profit.. hence my current run of losing sessions is bad luck and i blame variance cause thats what it is, not saying im the top tier poker player & that i dont make mistakes but to say "dont blame variance" due to losing sessions back to back is just a stupid comment
