Since I know absolutely nothing about limit poker, can someone tell me how common these kind of rushes are? If this stuff happens every day, I'm gonna stop posting about it.

I would say this is pretty normal, except that I usually run at about 50 BB/100 at 2/4. I would just suggest loosening up a bit and maybe ramping up the aggression. Just stick with...you'll soon be doing well.

Well sheesh, I didn't think you'd want a serious response in BBV. My honest answer is: playing the game you're playing--maybe rushes like that are common (and I imagine the corresponding brutal downswings are equally common).

When I first hit 2/4 at Party last summer I made 100 BBs in five hours. Two days later I was stuck 150 BB. It was a good ride.

Try being more aggressive PF. You have to open up your game a little bit to be successful over the long run.

Also, what tables are you playing at?
