the lower your expected win rate is the longer it can last

I have a 80k break even stretch. I used to be the best poker player that I have ever met. I must really suck at NL. I'll play anyone LHE.

I was on a break even stretch for 30k, and theoretically a break even run could last forever.

Just not very probable.

Grind through it, all will come to pass.

I have run breakeven for 10K hands.

The biggest revelation:
BAD PLAY CONTRIBUTES A [censored] LOT.

So don't try to "grind through it" but work on your game. Chances are that you have big holes in your game and fixing these is a lifetime task.

Edit: Your attitude problem lays right in front of you:

But his roll has been oscillating around the same amount for 30K hands. That's breaking even. Breaking even doesn't require you going back to your deposit amount.

Depends on your true WR and variance. Search for a post "for those who think that 30bi downswing is not possible" or something.
