more thinking

is the minraise on turn/river really that bad? there seems to be a lot of cases where people would fold to a bigger raise, but for some reason many people just can not fold to a minraise. im thinking more of big pots where...say at 25NL, with 100bb effective stacks, someone bets $7, and you minraise to 14...they call them theyre pot committed to call the final few dollars...probably on more dry boards, wet boards its obv bad

of course im just a donk musing about random things

I've had multiple 20+ downswings hence my loc
its a scary time especially when its cuz u run horribly as well as bad play

i recently switched from 1/2 FRFL to 6 max 25NL dropped 5 buyins in my first wk ive now grinded back to even at 10NL gonna stay here for another 5/10k hands then step up again.
Biggest problem im having is playing my draws OOP.

How to people maintain the bankrolls when they have these -20buy in periods. I am down several buyins this week and now thinking i am going to have to drop back down limits. Am i naíve in thinking most 2+2 25nl and 50nl players have built their bankrolls through grinding, or are alot of people funding these massive downswings with outside money?

I don't think I ever fund my account with outside money. I look at it this way: If I drop 20 BIs, I need to run ~5ptbb/100 over the next 40k hands and I'll make it back. That's usually around a month for me. So, after a huge downswing, you're usually looking at a month or so recovery period assuming you get back to playing poker well.
