Hi all,

I was beating 16nl consistently for 5 bb/100 over 50k hands (7bb/100 with All-in Adj.) over the last 5k hands or so however I have gone on a bit of a downswing (see graph) it's only about 7 BI's, but I had a bad run when taking shots at 25nl also which is not in graph. I am still running under ev, and the amount of times I've had to fold aces and kings on the flop, turn or river is pretty painful, but my bb/100 has dropped to under 3 now. I'm starting this thread for a couple of reasons.

A. I was wondering how common downswings are in the micros, obviously at the mid stakes they are just part of the game, but should a decent player go through the micros without too much variance?

B. Any advice on the red line? seems to drop quite dramatically.

C. When the money is not that significant, it's sometimes hard to find a point to play and try to improve when you are losing, any advice is much appreciated.
Hi all,

Hi OP

The answer to all three questions is

Nice join date OP, seems you have been making the most out of your time on the forums, keep on crushing

My vote is for bad thread.

by seeing your red line i can tell that all those AA KK fold on the flop were painful

tbh ur probably just bad

Ok. sorry if bad thread. Can I ask why? I'm just trying to get some feedback really.

Lol didn't realise everybody on here was so touchy. Geeks.

"geeks". damn that's pretty harsh op, there's no need to be so offensive and use the g-word. you shouldn't imply people aren't as cool as you. there's bad things to be but nobody could live with themselves if they were a geek. think about the meaning and consequences of words before using them so brashly

mold better give you infractions for such an outrageous accusation.

OP, it seems in 3 years of foruming you have not been to this section many times. What you have here is a standard downswing preceded by a standard breakeven stretch. You are also most likely folding far too often. Try micro stakes NL forum or beginners questions if you want serious responses geek.
