Re: Typical Swings at 50NL?
I've been grinding 25NL since a withdrawl in August. Before that I played up to the 400NL tables...but usually the 50-100NL tables. I've got some experience.
That being said, I'm just treading water since mid-September. Lost about 16BI in a coupla weeks, build it back, lose some more.
Last night was a 'typical' down session for me. I was playing three tables and was card dead on all for the first hour. I usually show enough discipline to get through spots like this. At one point I think I went 140 hands without playing to the flop except when calling the BB. Card dead and down a BI or so.
Then I pick up a coupla good hands...but not good enough. Run into a cooler. Then another. End up the session down 3.5BI... playing well IMO.
String a three or four days together like this and you can get to 10-12BI downswings with ease.
The good news is that it can go the other way too. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
