Default 11k hand losing streak. What am I messing up?

This summer I was a winning player, or ran well for 25,000 hands.



But since the new party bonus, I have been doing horribly, not even breaking even.






How do these number look? I hope the screenshots turn out ok. I've really been pushing it to get hands in, and it is frustrating to play for two solid weeks and be in the red. I'm wondering if maybe I'm playing too many tables.

It doesn't look like 2 of the pictures came out right. Anyone know how to fix this?

I just figured out that if you save these pictures and preview them you can enlarge them with your scroll wheel and they become easy to read.

You've had several 5k, 6k hand stretches in your first graph in which you were breaking even. If you run slightly worse and just put two of them side by side, you get your second graph.

This and much worse will happen all the time. Better brace yourself and always play your best.

i'm a winning player at 2/4 over 200,000 hands. I've had two 15,000 hands of breaking even. It happens, and you hate life, but it gets better.

These things do happen even to the best players, I realize. But they happen much more frequently to the sub optimum players. Can you guys take a look at my numbers, before and after, and tell me what you think? Is this short term variance or am I party pokers favorite player?

What are your thoughts on my aggression factor in my last 11k hands?

Alex, can you please tell me, where to make such charts? I have Poker Tracker but would not know how I can do this charts. Or do you have another program for this?
Pls dont say Excel, because I have no idea of it and never wanted to learn it...

Those pics are way to small, I really can't read them. But if I read it right you are 13/7? That's too nitty. You should be playing more hands. To get that started you should be stealing quite a bit more.

I recommend some 6-max, it'd help you be less of a nit.

I'm sorry that they are so small. If you right click on them and save them to your desktop you can view them very easily.
