So basically Noah shows that not many people can play mtts for a living? Time to find something else then.

Roughly 80-90k playing everything 100$ + including 1ks 150rs, 200rs etc. Came out of it with a ~180k Nov and Dec. Easy game. And yes, get a job kids.

lost 3/4 of my roll in the summer went from 8.5k to 2.5 k playing 12 180s and all tourneys up to the 20 cubed and the dng frightening how quickly it went down.

But i honestly couldnt believe how bad i ran i very nearly posted a poker is rogged thread in the zoo.

I dropped the bigger buyins and played a few less tables and slowly turned it around and now i'm in the best shape roll wise than ever before also feel i came out of it a better player able to withstand beats/runbad a lot better.

Wouldn't wanna go through it again though

i had 38k with ~75abi. my old one was 45k @ 130abi. The lower abi is pretty frustrating because it's mostly a breakeven stretch over ~2k games and a sick downswing with 2-300 of my highest buyins. having a wide buyin range really tempts variance. =/

yeah, my worst before this was like 300-400 too, I guess its somewhat 'standard' seeing others have similar, but it did make me question a lot of stuff

i had a 90k swing with an ABI ranging from 70-120.
didnt play the 1ks or anything, but bricked 2-3k a day and 5-6k on a sunday for a long time without any scores
def had some leaks tho so idk how much of it was variance and how much was tilting, and playing bad.
still miss online poker even remembering that =(

I mean there is a bricked 2k, few 1ks and plenty of 500s there so its slightly misleading and looks like its closer to 50k than 60k (been some time since I checked), but 1k abi downswings are somewhat common

1k downswings is for sure NOT something common, especially at avg buyin 50$.
People who have swings bigger than 5-600 must play tournaments on a very stretched buyin zone that also has huge fields which leads to those swings.
For sure you are missing something, no offence
