Pretty big downswing for me as I've been running at about 10.5bb/100 on UB (600nl/1000nl) and in the last 6k hands I'm down about 10k.

My EV calc says I've lost 7k in all-ins when I should be up 8.4k. I'm probably gonna rewatch some of my games and see if I'm doing much wrong, but I don't think tilt or play deterioration is that bad, we'll see.

If your downsing is 10k total at 600/1000NL its really not that huge yet. 15ish buyins is big but its pretty standard in fast aggro games like UB, especially if you make a couple of bad plays for stacks when you get stuck. Kind of why I like the UB software because its so fast that it can really tilt even the best opponents.

I guess my tolerance for downsings is higher than alot of ppl because I am so over-rolled. IMO the best thing you can do is drop to 2/4 or even 1/2 smash a few ppl for a few days and move up. Its not about admitting defeat or anything but trying to grind out of your downswing at your normal levels its not really a great idea. Drop down for a day or two book a few solid wins and move up, you will notice the difference in your game.
