Default hu killing me

i'm on something like a 360 bb downswing HU vs various opponents between 30/60, 50/100 and 100/200.

many players will quit me claiming i am too good or something like that and others i have a history with do not play me. but then every time i do get the chance to play i get my ass kicked, nothing ridiculous like 100+bb losses but just a bunch of 25bb to 50bb defeats.

chances are i just suck right?

i'd also like to hear some discussion about mid-high hu lhe variance. i thought my hu game was pretty good - i absolutely killed 30/60 and 50/1 for 20k hands but in 2k hands of 1/2 hu i am -200bb.

i guess the psycho aggression leads to absurd short term variance. in my 5 years of playing i have never hemorraged money like this or anything remotely close to this.

well i am pretty sure -15bb/100 over like 2.5k hands is not sustainable even for the worst players right?

Two guys I saw kill you in past day (Gatordae, rentef?) u def have big big edge on.

How much do you table select? That's a LOT at those limits if you are avoiding a couple of the tougher players.

i mean in general i dont think you should be choosing games against good players unless you are a) way overbankrolled or b) really confident that you are better
