Default Re: Downswings.

tbh, i am a pretty big winner and i make so many [censored] dumb mistakes when i play. its not outright tilt its just sloppiness and pansiness (no way this dude is calling a crai but meh, better just fold and move on). while i agree that a lot of the current super stars probably have ran on the right side of variance, i think some of yall underestimate the difference between a solid winner and a truly great player. ofc a 18/15 tag with a true wr on 3 will go on sick losing stretches but is that really "sick variance" or is it in large part his own fault for making all these mistakes and not exploiting all of his edges in the best way he can?

this may sound like a sick high number pulled out of nowhere but it wouldnt surprise me if i learned that the mistakes i make when playing cost me 1-2 stacks of EV for each 1000 hands i play.
