With regard to th 23k hands is nothing.

This may be true, but you need 5k before 15k before 50k etc.

I know the win rates stabilise, but i think low k numbers have some relevance (though not as much as most people think at this stage of their poker career)

Another thing that makes me feel nervous about my winrate is that I suddenly stopped winning as I switched to a new site. I probably wouldn't have taken it as hard if it was at a limit and site I had been beating for a long time, but as I'm relatively new to 100NL, and completely new to the crypto network I'm afraid I can't beat these games. =/

I`m on a 10buy in downswing myself right now. Punched the kitchen wall this morning when a maniac rivered quads (53o) against my Aces full of fives. Cards run totaly ridiculous sometimes, add some tilt to that and you get a nice downswing.

My hand hurts like [censored], just glad I don`t have pets in my house. Would have tortured and killed them allready.

Btw, these downswings always happens when your jumping a level, or just about to jump a level. Or is it just me ?

I feel you, and that's one hell of a brutal beat. I haven't changed levels that many times, so I'm not really sure, and the times I have switched I dropped down as soon as I lost a few buyins and then won it back on a lower level and gave it another stab. But I probably play a bit worse when I switch sites or levels, because I start playing differently, often more aggressive because I feel like everyone's trying to pick on me.
