More correct... 4tabling rush easily gives you 1200 hands per hour...

I'm experiencing the exact same thing in RUSH right now. Really nice upswing and now I can't hold up to save my life. It's been hit-a-two-outter on Money week.

It took my winrate from a whooping 2.24 down to 1.35 bigbets/100 with a 17.5 BI downswing at nl100 Rush..The rest of the downswing is at nl50 (luckily)..Still, I am at

NL100 - 1.35
NL50 - 0.39

Especially the nl50 winrate is terrible imo..

It happens to everyone especially people who play Rush poker. Good Job you moved down in time or you could be stuck in 50nl and lower for a while. Im sure you can move up quickly anyways. Gl and i hope you crack this downswing, its happened to me a fews times so i know how it feels=/

Just dont lose confidence in your game thats my only advice if you dont know it already lol

i played last nite 1st 1000 hands my winrate is 18bb/100. next 1000 hands juz make my winrate to 6bb/100 for the total 2000 hands.. lol.. thats how high the variance is for rush and i guess is pretty normal?

Well. it's ridiculous to even talk about winrate over samples like that..1000 hands is 1hour of play for me..

pardon me for my noobish post of 1khands earlier on... So, normally one session of yours is how many hands or hours?

the length of one session is irrelevant with regards to variance (if thats where youre going with your question). a winning player can lose over many thousands of hands. to get a pretty good estimate about your winrate you should play about 100.000 hands (during similar conditions, i.e. same limit, same site, same style of play etc)

Depending, but one hour is normally 1200 hands (4 tables of rush).. I have however played 6 and 8 tables..8 tables gave me about 1800/hour..

If you throw a coin 10 million times, it probably won't be a 50.00% / 50.00% but more like 50.04% / 49.96%, variance is neverending

Could easily be true.. What was your winrate after 100k hands?

What dont u play 100nl FR instead of 50 SH? I find it difficult to drop down limits whilst also playing a higher limit.... Like i play 50nl SH regularly but i'd prefer to play 50nl FR than 25nl SH.... Doesnt it distract/bother you?
