Re: How many buyins have you lost and recovered?

He's not talking about how much you lost in a specific session, he's talking about swings overall, which can easily run into double digits even for solid winning players. Players in high variance games with smaller edges are prone to this (especially if they have a high variance style of play).
To answer OP, my biggest NLHE downswing (since I've started counting) has been 8 BI in a 7k hand stretch. You will see more drastic numbers than this though.

Obviously you get it!! I have a friend that regularly plays 5000NL online and he has had several 20+ buyin swings. Those that have had only 3 or 4 buyin swings either don't play stakes that this can occur or don't play the number of hands in a month that I am referring to
