Default Re: The Run

I don't play on Stars so I haven't played with you recently, but I do remember playing you a decent amount at 2/4 on Party before legislation (I was NEWPPSNKTHX if you remember), and you were pretty spewy although I definitely regarded you as a tough player. Perhaps you're spewing too much? This is a really serious problem for a lot of good players who spew too much (I'm guilty of it as well). Many times the best way to increase your winrate and reduce your variance is to try and limit your losses from hand to hand.

I went through a really rough stretch at the end of last year where I dropped about 7k at mostly $2/4 (a little $3/6), then an additional $2k after dropping down to $1/2. I've more than recovered from it, but it was the worst stretch I've ever experienced (25 buyins to be exact). Here was a graph of the destruction.



Hope you get out of the downswing dude, gl.
