This might be the most insane downswing i ever seen.
I don't think you understand how different this game plays than standard nlhe. some of the regs in the pool have been struggling with it too (not necessarily jetkiss, tons of other guys though)
it's not nlhe with antes. it's nlhe with no sb, no bb, antes + a button ante and the button acts last preflop. if you go in and try to play a winning nlhe preflop strategy you will get destroyed
also, the pool has been really bad the last week. sometimes all regs. the first week was free money but most of the fish bustod or realized they don't have a chance in the rake race
