Make sure you let me know when you're goin down to play the mix game. I might just know someone who would love to sit on your immediate left. (Hint: It's me)

I'm setting a new low for personal downswings today. Currently 99bb.

200+ BB downswings happen in LHE, why wouldn't they happen in TD?

"and oddly it becomes more beatable as the limits increase, which I would never say the same for any other game I play."

TT I don't know how high you play but this is definitely wrong. Well, maybe its right to a point, but there is no way 30/60 is harder than 80/160, and 150/300 is ABSOLUTELY harder still.

And yea, the variance in TD is sick; i'll win and lose 70 bb in a session fairly regularly (and obv have done way more than that). By the same token if i lost 150 bb at 2/4 td i'd probably be doing some serious self analysis...

I am not talking about the differences in the middle limits. I have played in the range of 1/2 to 100/200 over the past 2 years.

Variance is this bad:

During current Triple Draw 2-7 session you were dealt 100 hands
Pots won if drawing - 1 of 17 (5%)
Pots won at showdown - 1 of 5 (20%)

Pfft. I have months of experience in the game, months of study since then, and plenty of the regulars think I'm bad (in some cases, probably, with good reason). I'm definitely situated the best in the 40 mix right now.

Funnest game in the world when your winning, worst game in the world when your losing. Even worse than razz ... It's nice to know I'm not the only one going on crazy variance in this game.

I know you guys said the variance was crazy, but a little piece inside of me wanted to think that you all were joking. Egad...rollercoaster.
