wait, so you lost a buyin every 26 hands, 75 times, and were strong favourite in basically every single one of them.

I just dont believe it

There wasn't a 60bi losing hand. The steep line you see is 3 hands in quick succession.

His biggest losing hands appear to be two hands where Cole South was forced to shove, and he called and lost, and then this third hand where it is unclear who was required to shove but it was probably the OP.

OP vs Cole, net loss: link to hand replay

77 vs Q8o, -21BI: http://www.pokertableratings.com/han...175/9626639344
AQo vs 49s, -16BI: http://www.pokertableratings.com/han...999/9626638750
KJo vs K8o, -15BI: http://www.pokertableratings.com/han...854/9625621992

also, lest you forget, see also:

KK vs A7s, +16BI: http://www.pokertableratings.com/han...269/9626729787

and this big hand, which has postflop play and was not a bounty hand:

TT vs Q2s, +15.5BI: http://www.pokertableratings.com/han...368/9625929673

If you look carefully you can spot all of these hands on the graph.

It's in the link, but win a hand with 72, 83, 94 or T5, and show it, and the next hand your opponent must shove all in as his first action. Best played in person sitting face to face on laptops. The risk of the bounty makes folding dangerous and so the game plays huge.
