Re: ******** October Omaha Low Content Thread ********
sqwisssssss,
Lets set a timeframe for the 10k. That way you'd be more likely to get a prop (extra 5k in your pocket) and have a schedule to keep you focused. Win/win.

Re: ******** October Omaha Low Content Thread ********
I haven't had huge downswings in PLO yet (haven't played that long), but I've had some demoralizing swings in stud hi and lowball draw games. Do you think limit or PL/NL is the swingiest?
Ugh, when reflecting about it, I think a 200 big bet downswing in stud hi made me stop playing stud hi, even though I can beat it pretty well. Now I never play stud hi because I feel rusty

No timeline? LOL, I'll offer a similar bet, but I have to reach 400,000,000,000k. Much more difficult. [/ QUOTE ] Is this in Canadian or US dollars or pounds?

[/ QUOTE ]  Interesting to look at all hands I have in Pokertracker, I would never have thought I had >10 buyin swings. I don't think I tilt, but there are stretches where I know I've played poorly and have tried out new things. The first downswing was when I read Reuben's book and started reading 2+2 and tried to be a "LAG". When someone says they are on a 10 buyin downswing, I don't ever buy that they aren't at least a little bit culpable. It'd be nice if you could easily annotate different sections with metrics like VPIP, pre and post flop aggression, etc.
