massive downswing - please help detect leaks

Fingerswinger · #1 07-05-2007, 03:34 PM

this is my almost-lifetime-graph (there was some NL25 and NL50 while learning the real basics):

the first downswing at ~50,000 would have been half as deep if i hadn't tilted seriously. but on this recent downswing i feel like i controlled myself very well.

i'm asking myself how likely it is for a winning player to have such a downswing. i somewhat got used to having a lot more winning days than losing days (playing 2,000 hands a day). but now i have been losing massively for more than a week. i don't trust my play anymore.

it would be nice if you could comment on some of the following hands. can you see big leaks?
thanks in advance.

here we go...
