7.5 Buy-Ins Gone

DenGreek · #1 03-27-2006, 02:47 PM

Reviewed all the hand histories, and I was a favorite whenever i got my money in, but overall i lost 7.5 buyins on the 600 NL stars game playing "good" poker.

To me that is alot of money and I was just wondering if this kind of horrible terrible run is enough of a reason to quit, or am I just a victim of freaky variance for one night?

thats why we have a bankroll of 25+ buyins right?

I do have 25+ buyins, but man i've never taken a night this bad, is it normal among regulars who play for a living/extra cash?

It's not "normal", but it's not uncommon either. Especially as you move up and the games get more aggressive you'll see this happening more frequently that you've been used to in the smaller, more passive games.

At least 0.49^7? Ouch.

It means your opponents had the worst of it 7 straight times and won.
