Re: Worst downswing ever?
I had a 15 BI downswing at 0.50/1 in early September and this kind of put me off Omaha for a bit. Fortunately it came after a 20 BI heater, although I'd taken a bunch of the money out as profit already.
Just remember bankroll management, and if you're below 20 BIs, drop down a level. |

Re: Worst downswing ever?
i´ve managed to lose 5-8 buy-ins at one single table several time. i wouldn´t call it a downswing though as there was a lot of tilt involved.

Re: Worst downswing ever?
Mine's about 40 buy-ins, but that's because I really left it affect my play. I took some time off after that and started playing a lot tighter preflop and I had no trouble getting it back.
When I was actually playing reasonably well, my worst downswing was 27 buy-ins. Not that I was 100% optimal on every decision, but I was playing fairly well at least. That came in the middle of what would have been a 32K hand breakeven stretch if I'd just waited for it to end, but I didn't. I kept chasing my losses to manufacture profits instead and ended up busting my account at about the 28K mark. |

Re: Worst downswing ever?

with the current state of 6-max plo games, i pretty much expect to have at least one 10+bi downswing every month. [/ QUOTE ] Pete, Can you (or anyone else) expand on this point? What is it about the current state of the game that would lead to at least one 10BI downswing/month? How is this different from the previous state of the game? Would you not expect the same variance in the prior state? Thanks. |

Re: Worst downswing ever?
around 40 buy ins, but I think i let the downswing affect my play. Still working on getting it back.
