1964 hands, -140BB, over the stretch of a week
Well, since the first of the year, I'm a consistent loser at 25c/50c PokerStars hold'em.
I admit I'm not the best player in the world, I've only been playing for a few months, but when do you determine that a beat is not a beat and that you are a loser? I mean -140BB in 1,900 hands is ridiculous. Is this even close to an average bad session? I know I don't play a ton of hands in a week, so this is mostly due to sample size, but come on! Prior to this I was a consistent winner at a much slower rate, 2.5 BB/100 over 1x,xxx hands. Now this happens and I'm like 1.2 BB/100 over my entire 1x,xxx. This is ridiculous. I can't even count how many times I've lost AA to KK, QQ etc. But, other than that I have no idea what to do. Play more hands? Play less hands? I even installed TiltBlocker to make sure I wasn't tilting during this whatever-you-wanna-call-it -140BB run. It must be a tilt since I was a consistent winner before and now this garbage happens... I couldn't have been just magically getting lucky over 10k+ hands for 2.5bb/100. Sounds like a swing right? Should I post more hands? Should I post my stats with low 1x,xxx hands?

Look at your mistakes, and fix them, or ask the Micro-Limit boards for advice. You're not a loser at the .25/.50 games, but you're not practicing expert play either.

So what? I played a 1k session and was down 90BB Started a new 1k session the next day and was down another 35BB in like 200 hands. I played my way out of it Just keep playing and post hands if you feel unsure.

It happens.
Seriously. I recently just dropped 150 BB in fewer hands than that. And then last night made 50 BB in 100 hands. It's just variance. Welcome to your first large downswing.
