Default Re: Stats check: my game is falling apart

This sucks - sorry I can't interpret PT stats too well so I can't really help you out much there. 100k hands is a long time to be on a heater if that's what it was - but then 60k is a long time to be running bad too. Poker can be such a brutal game - it was mentioned in a blog of a very successful player that was linked from these forums - a young guy who is 'retiring' from poker because it bugs him and he doesn't need to make money from it any longer - someone will know where to get the link.

Anyway he basically pointed out that many people would play nowhere near the amount of hands he plays in a month in their lifetime. And he has had several months where he ran bad for it's entirety. So someone could play phenomenal poker all their life and wouldn't know it - which is ridiculous really - he imagined someone playing world-class golf all their lives and not realising it.
