i had huge swings when moving up to 50nl. first 5k were incredible at 13bb/100, the following 5k hands my monies disappeared faster than a nascar gets its tires changed for a final result of 0.2bb/100 over 10k hands.

im taking a few days off poker now, finish top and ace on the river before i slowly try to play again.

after a downswing i always struggle to get back confidence in my game and the kind of mental stability you need to play winning. after the 2nd or 3rd beat i have to quit, and realizing how i actually suck makes me tilt.
